India Vs Japan Live Score, One-Off T20I: India and Japan are set to meet in a historic first-ever men’s T20I at the Sano International Cricket Ground on Tuesday, September 22. The Suzuki Cup clash, starting at 9:30 AM IST, will serve as preparation for both teams ahead of the 2026 Asian Games. India, led by Shreyas Iyer, enter the contest as the reigning T20 World Cup champions after a 3-0 series sweep over Afghanistan, while Japan will be captained by their leading T20I run-scorer Kendel Kadowaki-Fleming. India could also hand 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi his opportunity in the landmark fixture. However, rain remains a concern after wet conditions disrupted India’s preparations in Sano. With the Asian Games approaching, both sides will look to gain valuable match practice in unfamiliar conditions. Stay tuned for all the live scores, updates and key moments.
