Sri Lanka competed at the 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou, China from September 23 to October 8, 2023. This was Sri Lanka's 19th appearance at the Asian Games, having competed at every Games since the second edition in 1951.
Originally on July 26, 2023, a team of 96 athletes (62 men and 34 women) were named to the team competing in 21 sports. A total of 57 officials (including coaches) were also included in the final delegation. In September 2023, two track and field athletes withdrew due to injury, while a male artistic gymnast was added, bringing the final team to 95 athletes (61 men and 34 women). The 95 athletes marked a decline of 78 athletes from the 2018 Asian Games, because the country chose only athletes with medal winning possibilities.
On September 14, 2023 it was announced golfer Anura Rohana and athlete Gayanthika Abeyratne would be the country's flagbearers during the opening ceremony. At the age of 52, Rohana became the oldest flagbearer in Asian Games history.
