your id (koduvayur) is particularly interesting to me. This is my mother's ancestral place in kerala. I know very little about it. Perhaps we could chat offline ?

Oh btw, Anand IS the best.

Kramnik is going to loose against anand easily.
Carlsen is mucu much better candidate for worldchampionship not kramnik

but unfortunately it is anand VS kramnik..... i will give a 55% chance to kramnik, because the game mode is 120 min. if the game goes for a tie, if the blitz is required to decide the champion(undisputed 2008) it will be the lighting boy(vishy) will emerge as the champion. let the best player win

boring games

hardly any coverage about the second test win but THIS ??

Rediff should focus on real sports instead of games like chess which only schoolkids , oldage home people and loner geeks play.

Irrelevant News!!!
by Hot Air on Aug 04, 2008 11:59 AM  | Hide replies

Rediff,
Please stop posting news about Anand winning. The guy has been winning everything under the chess sun for 15 years now; so, winning yet another title is not news.
Please publish a news item ONLY when Anand loses. Please publish more articles on Cricket where an India win is actually news.
To Anand: Start losing some matches if you want to be in news more often.

Virendra Sehwag is a true champion

Anand has won but his not a true champion. The true champion is Viru who helped india win the second test. Viru u deserve the best.

suresh, vishy is a 11 time champion in blitz, 9 consecutive times. viru played a knock of his life, amaizind perfomance, but vishy's perfomance is no less.

Anand the legend
by souvanik sarkar on Aug 04, 2008 11:43 AM

Anand has done far more than any of our cricket players (keeping the gr8 Sachin Tendulkar in mid) to make our country proud. Still the sports fratenity and also our govt has not shown the same hostility they have shown to our cricketers. Anand is the only one who has proved himself again and agian at the biggest stage. Still media lauds a first round win of Sania Mirza in a Grand Slam more than Anand's Championship win. So sad. Cheers Anand.
