India, the tournament's favorite, will be preparing for a highly anticipated clash with the Republic of Korea at the Asian Games 2023 in Hangzhou, China. This matchup has a long history of rivalry dating back several decades, promising an exciting spectacle.

The previous Asian Games did not end well for the Indian women's Kabaddi team, as they were defeated in the final by Iran. This defeat has provided additional motivation for their campaign in 2023, as they seek redemption and vengeance.

The Indian women's kabaddi team made an unexpected start to their Asian Games 2023 campaign. Their thrilling match against Chinese Taipei at Hangzhou's Xiaoshan Guali Sports Centre ended in a 34-34 tie, with neither team emerging victorious. Pooja Hathwala emerged as the Indian team's standout performer in the match against the Chinese Taipei.

The South Korean women's kabaddi team has also had a difficult start, losing to Thailand in their first game, and hence are currently placed at the bottom of the group. It is clear that, as tournament favorites, India must strive to outperform their previous performance in the upcoming matches.
