How teams qualified for Asian Games cricket quarterfinals

During the league phase of the 2026 Asian Games men's cricket competition, six teams were split into two groups of three. Group A consisted of Nepal, Afghanistan and Japan; Group B contained Malaysia, Hong Kong and Oman. Rain washed out the Malaysia‑Oman fixture, but the remaining results allowed Nepal and Afghanistan to progress from Group A, while Malaysia and Hong Kong advanced from Group B. Pre‑qualified nations India, Sri Lanka, Pakistan and Afghanistan had already secured quarter‑final berths, completing the eight‑team roster for the knockout round.
