The Indian Contingent will kickstart their Commonwealth Games 2022 (CWG) Campaign on July 29, 2022.

India has fielded over 200 athletes to compete across 15 sporting disciplines at the 2022 Birmingham Commonwealth Games (CWG) in Birmingham, United Kingdom, in what would be the nation's 18th appearance at the colossal event.

India bagged a whopping 66 medals, including 26 gold, 20 silver, and 20 bronze medals in the 2018 edition of the Games. India finished third, behind powerhouses Australia and England.

However, this time around, the Indian contingent has suffered some massive jolts, with the biggest names missing from the squad.

Defending champion and India's biggest bet Neeraj Chopra, six-time world champion Mary Kom and former World No. 1 Saina Nehwal, among others, will not be a part of the 2022 CWG.

Despite several setbacks in the form of injuries, controversies, exclusion of shooting, archery, and positive drug results in the athletics camp, the Indian contingent will be looking to excel in all departments at CWG 2022.


Stay tuned for the updated Commonwealth Games 2022 medal table on Sportskeeda.
