Live Cricket Match Today India: Which Games Are On and Where to Follow (22 Sep 2026)

Searching for a live cricket match today in India? As of the morning of 22 September 2026, Indian fans have three live fixtures involving India to follow: the men's one-off T20I against Japan in Sano, the women's Asian Games final against Sri Lanka, and the unofficial four-day Test between India A and Australia A in Puducherry. Below is the status of each match at the time the sources were checked (22 September 2026, around 05:00 UTC), plus where to find live scores and streaming.

India vs Japan T20I in Sano

The headline fixture is India's one-off T20I against Japan at the Sano International Cricket Ground. According to the live schedule on Cricket World, the match was listed as live from 04:00 GMT with the "Toss delayed due to wet outfield". That means play had not begun at fetch time, so the result was still unknown and any scoreline circulating should be treated as provisional.

The ICC gave the game prominent billing, describing it as a historic fixture and noting that Shreyas Iyer and Washington Sundar were "primed for India's historic T20I against Japan". For Indian fans, this is a rare chance to watch the senior men's side in a brand-new international setting.

India Women vs Sri Lanka Women: Asian Games Final

The women's Asian Games cricket final at Korogi Sports Park, Nisshin, was also live on 22 September, with the scoreboard showing "IND-W elected to bat". India reached the final after Shafali Verma's unbeaten century powered a 114-run semi-final win, per Cricket World's report. In the third-place play-off, Pakistan Women beat Bangladesh Women by 31 runs.

India A vs Australia A in Puducherry

Closer to home, India A began a four-day unofficial Test against Australia A at the Cricket Association Puducherry Siechem Ground. The live listing showed "Day 1 - Session 1, IND-A elected to bat", so the first innings was in progress at fetch time.
