Yea... I think these games should only be for sports/disciplines not on the main Asian Games.program.

However having badminton is more profitable for the hosts as the nation loves the sport and would also have better viewership than the smaller sports. So having a major sport or 2 which can increase local interest is just fine imo.

So... Doha 2030 / Riyadh 2034 or Riyadh 2030 / Doha 2034?

 

 

I think by next year we will already know the host of Asian Games 2050

Good for Riyadh. We would watch lots of female sports first ever host in Saudi Arabia. Good for Saudi's female sports and athletes.

It’s crazy to think about how it’s been a year since Lausanne2020 today. What a different time it was.

Postponed to March 2022.

In most likelihood unless Kazakshthan is in for something of a suprise in 4 months time
