on twitter during the match this was the 3rd most trending event in india.. but, for indian news channels this is not even a news.. irony is this is the same media which conduct 100s of shows on how to encourage sports in india during sports part of Satyamev Jayate.. media always give coverage when some bollywood star is present..

Two great Minds are in work.. it should be interesting for chess lovers to enjoy watching the game. I wish Vishy and believe he will win the competition.

We will know at the end of the tournament.. Anand is capable of winning the tournament and i don't think there is any pshycological adv for carlsen.. it should be challenging for Anand but the better player will win the tournament and my bet is Anand

Whomsoever breaks first will be a looser in this championship. Anand has experience but not the records are with him while Carlson has the records with him but not the experience with him when compared with Anand. Hope Anand keeps his cool n aggressive nature to beat Carlson.

yeah Carlsen is the favourite. 3 out of 4 games he has dominated. yesterday, also he has better position. but, Anand's precise calculation is the key.

Piri's hunch is quite close to the truth. Anand at 45 is quite old compared to the 22 year old Carlsen. And chess is a young man's game. Stamina counts a lot in chess, especially in a longer duration tournament.
May the better player win.
Anand, still with his 5 world championships, have made India proud and a chess force to reckon with.
