Hangzhou 2022 Preview

A new generation of athletes and seasoned professionals will be showcasing their talents at the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games in China starting this weekend. This event is the second-largest multi-sport competition globally, after the Olympics - and additionally, this year's edition of the Asian Games is tied for the second-largest in history featuring a total of 40 sports and offering 481 gold medals.

The Malaysian team is sending 289 athletes to compete in 22 different sports, a decrease from the 417 athletes at the 2018 Palembang edition. With a target 27 medals, together with Haresh Deol from twentytwo13, we analyze the prospects for each event while emphasizing the significance of the Asian Games, especially in the context of the upcoming Paris Olympics.
