India secured a commanding seven-wicket victory over Pakistan in their Women's Asia Cup 2026 group-stage encounter in Dubai, successfully sealing their spot in the semi-finals. Opting to bat, Pakistan collapsed to 55 all out in 18.1 overs—their lowest-ever T20I total. Shawaal Zulfiqar (14) and Muneeba Ali (13) were the only batters to reach double digits as Shree Charani (3/7) and Prema Rawat (3/9) dismantled the lineup alongside Deepti Sharma (2/5). In response, India chased down the 56-run target in just 8.4 overs (57/3), anchored by captain Harmanpreet Kaur’s unbeaten 18. With three wins from three matches, India tops Group A and comfortably marches into the semi-finals, while Pakistan's semi-final qualification paths hang in the balance, heavily dependent on their net run rate and final group match against Hong Kong.

Carlos Alcaraz continued his US Open title defence in emphatic fashion, defeating Wu Yibing 6-3, 6-4, 6-1 to book his place in the fourth round. The defending champion was made to work by Wu’s fearless, all-out attacking game, particularly the Chinese player’s explosive forehand, but Alcaraz repeatedly found answers in the crucial moments. He surrendered a break advantage in each of the opening two sets before regaining control and establishing a two-set lead. Wu threatened early in the third set with two break points, but Alcaraz held firm, shifted through the gears and raced away with the match. The 23-year-old Spaniard, playing his first tournament since April after recovering from a right wrist injury, has now won 17 consecutive matches at Grand Slam level. He will next face American Tommy Paul in the fourth round.

Aryna Sabalenka continued her dominant US Open run with a composed 6-3, 6-4 victory over Kamilla Rakhimova to reach the fourth round.

Rakhimova raised her level in the second, forcing Sabalenka to work harder and saving four break points, but the two-time defending champion eventually found the breakthrough with a blistering return before serving out the match. Sabalenka has now won 16 consecutive matches at the US Open and will next face either Taylor Townsend or Diana Shnaider.
