India stormed into the Asia Cup final with a commanding 10-wicket victory over Bangladesh. 

Renuka Singh and Radha Yadav led the charge, picking up six wickets between them to restrict Bangladesh to a paltry 80 for 8. Renuka's powerplay burst reduced Bangladesh to 21 for 3, while Radha's variations kept them under pressure, finishing with 3 for 14.

Bangladesh's skipper Nigar Sultana tried to anchor the innings but found little support. Deepti Sharma also contributed with a tight spell, conceding only 14 runs and taking a wicket.

Chasing 81, India's openers Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma ensured a swift victory. Mandhana played aggressively, scoring an unbeaten 55, while Shafali supported with 26 not out. The duo reached the target in just 11 overs, with Mandhana hitting three consecutive boundaries to seal the win.

With this dominant performance, India advanced to the final, where they will seek their eighth Women's Asia Cup title. They await the winner of the Sri Lanka vs Pakistan semifinal, set to be played later today. India's readiness and form set the stage for an exciting final on Sunday.

Scorecard: 

India 83 for 0 (Mandhana 55*, Shafali 26*) beat Bangladesh 80 for 8 (Renuka 3-10, Radha 3-14, Deepti 1-14) by 10 wickets
