India vs Afghanistan LIVE Score, Asian Games 2026: The Asian Games 2026 men’s cricket quarterfinal between India and Afghanistan was abandoned without a toss due to heavy rain in Nisshin on Monday. Weather forecasts had predicted rainfall throughout the day, although there were hopes of some cricket being played. However, the persistent rain prevented even the toss from taking place, forcing officials to call off the match after a prolonged wait. As a result, Shreyas Iyer-led India advanced to the semi-finals by virtue of their higher ICC T20I ranking than Afghanistan. India will now face either Sri Lanka or Nepal in the semi-final on October 1. Earlier in the day, the quarterfinal clash between Pakistan and Hong Kong was also abandoned due to the same reason, with Pakistan progressing to the semi-finals based on their superior ICC T20I ranking.
