The last spot for the semi-finals is up for grabs in the Women’s Asia Cup 2026 as Bangladesh Women (BAN W) go up against the United Arab Emirates Women (UAE W) in Match No. 12 of the continental event on Tuesday, September 08, at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai.
Bangladesh Women started off the tournament with a brilliant 71-run victory against Indonesia Women, but faced a disappointing loss at the hands of Chamari Athapaththu-led Sri Lanka in their last game. While the Lankans have already booked their spot for the final four, Bangladesh, placed second on the table, will look to make the most out of their last league stage clash and secure a meeting in the semi-final.
The UAE Women, on the other hand, opened their account with a loss against Athapaththu & Co. but the side came out with flying colours against the Indonesians to get their maiden points on the leaderboard. They are currently placed third on the table, but a win in their third and final league encounter will make sure they thrash the Bangla Tigresses and move to the second to qualify for the semis.

Dubai International Cricket Stadium: Pitch Report
The pitch at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium has certainly been a bat-first deck in the ongoing tournament, as the majority of the games have been won convincingly by the teams batting first. The same trend is expected to continue for the upcoming fixture as well. The team batting first should look to post a decent total on the board and bank on the bowlers to do the rest of the job.

BAN W vs UAE W: Probable Best Performers of the Match
Probable Best Batter: Sobhana Mostary
Sobhana Mostary shone with the bat courtesy of her excellent 40-run knock against Indonesia in the opening clash. She followed it up with a 34 against Sri Lanka as well, although it came in a losing cause. However, Mostary will look to utilise her form and produce a memorable innings for Bangladesh in a must-win encounter.
Probable Best Bowler: Marufa Akter
Marufa Akter has been the wrecker-in-chief with the ball for Bangladesh in the tournament. In just a couple of games played, she has picked up five important breakthroughs for her side, which includes a 3-21 against Sri Lanka. She will look to ride on her form and deliver a match-winning spell for Bangladesh in this do-or-die fixture.
