Sri Lanka vs Nepal, Asian Games Cricket 2026
Korogi Sports Park, Nisshin
Sri Lanka begin their Asian Games Cricket 2026 campaign against Nepal in the 3rd Quarter-Final on 29 September. The knockout match starts at 9:00 AM in Japan, 00:00 GMT, 5:30 AM in Nepal and 5:30 AM in Sri Lanka.
Nepal topped Group A after a five-wicket win over Afghanistan and a rain-affected no result against Japan. Dipendra Singh Airee’s side now face a seeded Sri Lankan team in a one-off contest for a semi-final place.
Sri Lanka arrive with a balanced squad led by Sahan Arachchige. Nepal’s experienced T20 core makes this a demanding first match for Sri Lanka, especially if the conditions continue to help slower bowling.

Sri Lanka vs Nepal Match Information
The Asian Games Cricket 2026 3rd Quarter-Final will be played at Korogi Sports Park in Nisshin on 29 September 2026. Play begins at 00:00 GMT, 9:00 AM in Japan and 5:30 AM in Nepal and Sri Lanka.
Sri Lanka vs Nepal Quarter-Final Preview
Sri Lanka’s squad includes power through Lasith Croospulle and Nuwanidu Fernando, experience from Niroshan Dickwella and Chamika Karunaratne, and several wicket-taking bowling options. Captain Sahan Arachchige will be central to their balance through the middle overs.
Nepal have already adapted to the venue. They beat Afghanistan by five wickets before making 149/4 in 15 overs against Japan, although rain prevented a completed result. Sundeep Jora and Lokesh Bam both scored unbeaten fifties in that final group match.
Sri Lanka begin as the seeded side, but Nepal’s recent match practice and settled T20 core make this a genuine knockout test. Control against spin and the ability to use the powerplay could shape the result.
