Women's Asia Cup 2022, Semi-Final 1: IND-W vs TL-W Match Prediction – Who will win today’s match?

India and Thailand will lock horns in the first semi-final fixture of the Women’s Asia Cup 2022 at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium in Bangladesh. India topped the points table and became the first team to qualify for the semi-finals of the continental event. After the Bangladesh vs UAE fixture was washed out, Thailand made their surprise entry at the next level.

The defending champions Bangladesh was knocked out of the race, and thus the six-time champions India would be eyeing a record seventh title. On the other hand, Thailand, who scripted history by defeating Pakistan in this tournament, will be looking to repeat similar heroics against the Women in Blue and seal their final berth.
