This thread is mainly about the women’s volleyball tournament of the games. It’s a
little strange to be calling the games “Hangzhou 2022” when we’re already in 2023
but a lot has happened in the last few years and a postponement is better than a
cancellation.
There are still some issues to be sorted out, but I thought I’ll just go ahead to start this thread.

can't wait for Cai Bin to make LYY take 50+ swings per match against Korea, Thailand, and Japan's B team. 
Was this the tournament Russia is rumored to join? Or has that been scrapped as well lol

I think that only pertained to individual sports and not team sports.
Schedules for the Asian Games are in this link
Chinese Women's Volleyball Team always gives a high priority to the Asian Games, the continent's largest multisport event, even more than the Asian Women's Volleyball Championship. In the last edition in 2018 hosted by Indonesia, China also despatched a full A team minus the injured Zhang Changning to Jakarta and won the gold medal.
The Chinese girls played badly while Thai team was great. The Chinese girls were quite sluggish, no agility at all, painful to watch! Dunno players of this age in China, or any better stock of this age generation there, 16-18 yo. These U19 players will need lots of improvement to grow into serious players in future.

I believe a few of the eligible players have gone to strengthen the u21 squad. This weakened the u19 team (will elaborate in the China NT thread on this). But still they were expected to win, but they put in a poor performance. But take nothing away from the Thais, they threw everything at the Chinese, they were fearless in their attack, led by captain Warisara, who has already played for their senior side.
It was a good experience for the young players of both sides. We will definitely see more of them in future.
Thanks Julian, the standstill capture of the Hangzhou's newly built stadium for hosting the 19th Asian Games is awesome (I'll also use your capture elsewhere 😄 )
Hope you don’t mind...I transferred your Quote here from Japan Women’s NT 2023...
We’re quite close to the games and I’m collecting rosters from participating countries 😃
Thanks.

I've never watched Zhong Hui and Wu Meng-jie. Are they any good or just there to fill the roster?

They are better than all the OHs in previous Cai Bin’s teams, except for Li Yingying.
Here are some links to recent matches which they played...
