India unlikely to field cricket teams in Hangzhou Asiad

Cricket will make a comeback at the Asian Games in Hangzhou later this year but India, the game’s financial engine, is unlikely to field teams owing to existing commitments. Few expected India’s men’s team to compete in the September Games risking injury to the players ahead of the Twenty20 World Cup in Australia from Oct. 16. Participation of the women’s team, who will compete in the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham in July-August, now also looks unlikely.
