India at the Asian Games through the years

India is fielding a 655-member Indian contingent at the Asian Games 2022 in Hangzhou, the People’s Republic of China.

The 19th edition of the continental multisport event officially began on September 23 and will conclude on October 8.

The ongoing edition of the quadrennial meet was originally scheduled for 2022 but was postponed by a year due to COVID-19.

At the last edition in Jakarta back in 2018, a 570-strong Indian squad racked up a best-ever Asian Games haul of 70 medals – 16 gold, 23 silver and 31 bronze.

With an increase in the contingent strength, a bump in the medals count is also expected.

Over the years, athletics have accounted for the majority of India’s medals at the Asian Games – 254 from a total of 672. Track and field events will once again be the focus at Hangzhou, with India fielding 68 athletes, the country’s largest contingent in any sport.

The Indian athletics squad in Hangzhou features top names like men’s javelin throw ace Neeraj Chopra, the reigning world, Olympic and Asian Games champion, Commonwealth Games men’s 3000m steeplechase silver medallist Avinash Sable and women’s hurdles sensation Jyothi Yarraji.
