Cricket was one of the 37 sports that was played at the 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou, China.[1] Both men's and women's Twenty20 International tournaments were played from 19 September to 7 October 2023. Prior to this edition, cricket was last played at the Asian Games in 2014. The Asian Games were originally planned to take place in September 2022, but were later postponed by one year because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Fourteen men's teams and nine women's teams took part. The teams were seeded based on the ICC T20I Rankings as of 1 June 2023.[2][3][4]
