India will aim for its biggest medal haul in the single edition of Asian Games history as the athletes take on the field in Hangzhou, China. The Indian contingent comprises 655 athletes who will be participating in 41 disciplines across 36 sports.
Largest ever Asina Games contingent for India
The Indian contingent for the Asian Games 2023 will be the biggest that India has ever sent for an Asiad. It eclipses the previous record of 625 Indian athletes at an Asian Games that was set during Guangzhou 2010 Asian Games. The India contingent for the 2023 Asian Games would be 85 more than the 570 athletes during the 2018 Asian Games in Jakarta-Palembang.

Abki Baar 100 Paar: The 100-medal target
The Indian Olympic Association (IOA) has set a target of 100 medals for Hangzhou 2022 games. The target has been established, seeing India’s great success in recent sporting events. Speaking on this, India’s minister for Sports and Youth Affairs, Anurag Thakur, said, “It is good to talk about 100 medals or more, but every athlete is selected on merit. And the Prime Minister has said that when you represent 140 crore people of the country, you have to give your best at all times and medals and success will come by itself.”
India’s performance at the last edition of Asian Games- 2018 Jakarta- Palembang
India scripted history at the 2018 Asian Games by achieving its best-ever medal haul. The 570 athletes contingent managed to win 16 Gold, 23 Silver and 31 Bronze medals at the Jakarta-Palembang edition held in Indonesia from August 08 to September 02, 2018.

Undeniably, Neeraj Chopra is the best gold medal bet for the Indian contingent. Reigning Olympic and world champion, Neeraj doesn’t have anyone to catch up to. He would be going in as the firm favourite. He will aim to breach the 90-meter mark before the Paris Olympics, which will be his biggest chance.
