My guess, players are largely based outside the country, or based in the few big cities the government still controls.

Hmm .But is it like its a part of Central Asia now

Interestingly these Games still survive despite all the crazy stuff that shook the stability of that region.

Afghanistan is still part of SAARC and has not shown any intent of leaving it. So, I doubt if their non-participation is due to they not considering themselves as a South Asian nation.

Broadcast rights were sold to Indian company NK Media. According to Around the Rings broadcasts should be available in all participating nations.

:AFG does not compete anymore.

 

Wouldn't India be considered a bigger fail? 28 medals all time for the second most populous nation is pretty embarrassing imo.

Why isn’t Afghanistan competing anymore?

We had a conversation about this on the last page I think. Essentially it’s for a number of possible reasons. The most likely reason being that they’ve joined the Central Asian region of the OCA (which is in line with some of the policies they’ve been taking). It could also be the hardship of transporting athletes because of the Taliban, or a lack of funding.

This is equivalent to nothing. A small media from Orissa whose channel is only available in Bhubaneshwar. 

 

Meanwhile only Nepal is participating paragliding so 4 individual cleansweeps  are sure with all 4 athletes from Nepal. 

 

I'd love to watch cricket match between Bhutan and Maldives. 

 

All nations are participating in only Athletics, Shooting, Badminton and Basketball.

A press release from the organizing committee stated that Paragliding has been dropped from the games. Always nice to see countries not taking a free gold medal at every opportunity they get :yes

      Malinin  opted for the 4-Axel in his Short Program, but faltered, landing him in 3rd thus far (and only 0.05 away from 4th!).  Surely he has the tools to rise back up in the Free Program.  (Also, perhaps this will serve to show him that he is in fact beatable.)

      I think they incorrectly translated Ukrainian word "nahorody" - it is not a full synonym of "medal". Its cocrrect translation is "award". Meanwhile russian tennis playes switched for Potapova ->  Rakhimova ->

      Ukrainian diver Lyskun switches allegiance to Russia, loses all medals | Olympics News | Al Jazeera   'loses all medals'   I would assume Al Jazeera could have been a bit clearer and mention this would presumably only be national medals. I mean, it's not like the Ukrainian federation, or any single federation for that matter, has the power to strip her of her world and European championships medals I hope (not for her sake, but because that would be a super weird precedent)

      Confirmation about the broadcasting rights.   If I'm reading it right, for most of Europe it will now be exclusive to Discovery/Eurosport or whatever brand they use.     For outside Europe, it's on YouTube. For Planet VPN....well, let us know if you find out.   fil-taker-list-25-26-winterberg-1.pdf   Also, should have mentioned above that the Nations Cup races today are just over one leg, whereas there are two runs in each of the World Cup races.

      Surely. Her first coach now works in russia (and grandma lives in russia according to Sereda). They were in contact and despite of full funding from  the girl decided to become the star of russian propaganda.  As I saw in X: "It took the Russians four years of war to find a relatively well-known sports personality to carry out such a propaganda operation."
