Vishwanathan Anand:The Silent Performer for India

Vishwanathan Anand is one of the most successful chess player in the history of this game.This blog is about his recent victories and the further events in which he would be participating.



Vishwanathan Anand ended the year 2017 on a memorable note by winning the world rapid chess championship.In the process he defeated the likes of  Vladinir Fedoseev and left behind the mighty Magnus Carlsen.This was his first world championship event since 2013.However the biggest achievement for Anand would have been getting past Magnus Carlsen who had been beating him for quiet sometime.I am pretty inpired by this gentleman.How he has been able to rule the chess world in last 15-20 years has been amazing.If we look at his performance in last two three years we would notice that despite failing to win World championships he has been quiet consistent in his performance.It was just that he was not able to win those events.

Who is better Sachin or Virat?

The hot Question since past three years is Who is a better player Sachin or Virat?                              Sachin Tendulkar                                                        Virat Kohli Well its not easy to compare two people of two different generations but it still can be done because of the fact that both of them have played with each other for good 3-4 years. Lets compare both of them on different aspects-: 1.       Time periods :  When we compare the periods when these two played then they are extremely different.
