    Thailand's Chantham Eyes 2026 Rising Stars Women’s Asia Cup As Platform To Close Gap With Top Teams

    LIVE On Sony Sports Ten: Thailand cricketer Natthakan Chantham said hosting the 2026 Rising Stars Women’s Asia Cup in her home city of Bangkok represents a significant milestone for the sport in the country, following their disappointment at missing out on the T20 World Cup.

    The eight-team tournament will happen from February 13-22, where Radha Yadav-led India 'A' enter as defending champions. Thailand competing in the competition on home soil is a scenario Natthakan describes as both special and motivating for the squad. "Playing a major tournament in Bangkok is very special for us. Thailand playing on home soil also gives us a quite strong sense of the price and responsibility.

    “Of course, there is some pressure, but I see it's more of a motivation. The support from our home and ground will give us energy and we quite feel safe with play in our home ground. It quite reminds us why we play not just for ourselves, but quite like forward for the country," she told IANS in an exclusive interview, facilitated by Sony Sports Network.
