India advanced to the men's cricket semi-finals of the Asian Games 2026 after their quarter-final against Afghanistan at Nisshin, Japan was abandoned without a ball bowled on September 28 due to persistent rain.

Under tournament rules the higher ICC T20I-ranked side progresses, so top-ranked India moved through; Pakistan similarly advanced after their quarter-final against Hong Kong was washed out.

India will face the winner of Nepal vs Sri Lanka in the October 1 semi-final.
