Women's Asia Cup 2026 Likely from August 28 in UAE

The Women's Asia Cup 2026 is expected to be held in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) from August 28 to September 13, according to information reportedly shared internally with member nations of the Asian Cricket Council (ACC). Although the ACC is yet to officially announce the venues and complete schedule, preparations for the continental tournament are understood to be underway. Teams are expected to arrive in the UAE on August 27, with the final likely to be played on September 13.

The tournament is expected to feature India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Nepal, Malaysia, Thailand, and the UAE, setting the stage for another highly anticipated India-Pakistan women's clash. Reports suggest the official schedule has been delayed due to pending administrative approvals and finalisation of venues. India remains the most successful team in the history of the Women's Asia Cup, having won seven titles, although Sri Lanka emerged champions in the 2024 edition after defeating India in the final.
