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.

Ashes 2017:The clash of the Titans

The most awaited test series of the year,Ashes is back with Australia and England battling one more time.This blog about the team analysis of both the teams and who stands a better chance this time. This year's Ashes series is a very different contest all together.Both the teams have a bunch of new players and debutants.This makes the series even more interesting.Talking about the visitors i.e England,the whole batting line up revolves aroung two players Alaister Cook and Joe Root.The whole team is a lot more dependant on these two players.The top order of England having the likes of  Mark Stoneman,David Malan,James Vince is difficult to predict as these players don't have much experience.But the strength lies in the lower middle order of England where there is Moeen Ali,Jonny Bairstow.Both these players have a decent average of 35+.But it would be intersting to see how Moeen Ali plays in the fast and bouncy pitches of Australia.He got exposed to short balls when England ...

Who will win the U.S Open 2017?

U.S Open 2017 is all set to see its 137th champion.The withdrawl of many contenders have made this edition much more interesting.This blog discusses the major contenders of this championship this year. The biggest talking point in this year's U.S Open is who will play the finals rather than who will win the U.S Open.This is probably the first time that Nadal and Federer are placed in the same half of the draw in the absence of Djokovic and Murray.Defending champion Stanlas Wawrinka has also pulled out of the U.S Open due to injury.This means the top half is packed with many former U.S Open champions like Del Potro along with Federer and Nadal.Hence the one who advances from the top half is expected to win the championship.Bottom half has some good players like Cilic,Sam Querry,Zverev,Tsonga but Tsonga and Zverev have already been knocked out of tournament.The bottom half is expected to have such upsets because none of these players have been consistent in grand slam events...
