Previews - A general view of Victoria Park, venue for Lawn bowls as teams practice ahead of the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games at Victoria Park
The Commonwealth Games (CWG 2022)is all set to commence on July 28 with a grand opening ceremony and will continue until August 8, 2022, in Birmingham, United Kingdom.
More than 5,000 athletes representing 72 nations and territories will compete across 19 sporting disciplines. In the high-octane 12-day mega event, as many as 280 medal events will take place across 15 venues located in nine different cities and towns across the UK.
In the 2022 edition of the Games, women's T20 cricket, 3x3 basketball and 3x3 wheelchair basketball will mark their debuts at the Games. This year will also witness the highest number of events for women (136) and para-sport athletes (42) in CWG history.
A 215-member contingent is gearing up to represent India at CWG 2022 in what would be the nation's 18th appearance at the colossal event.
Out of the 215 athletes, 108 are men, while 107 will be women, who will be competing across 16 disciplines. The total strength of the Indian contingent will, however, be 322, including 72 team officials, 26 extra officials, and nine contingent staff, including three general managers.
India bagged a whopping 66 medals at CWG 2018, including 26 gold, 20 silver, and 20 bronze medals. India finished third, behind powerhouses Australia and England.
The Indian contingent will be looking to improve on that record in the upcoming edition.
