Carlsen wanted to play Alireza. Gukesh trounced him (okay in one match). Maybe Gukesh becomes the WC and then Carlsen would want to play him? Gukesh is 1 point ahead of Diren in ELO Live Ratings. So, he is the favorite. :p Part of the lack of celebration maybe because the board was down twice! But, ...

Would a kind mod kindly move this to an Olympic Thread so that we can still have it there when we discuss the Olympics or want to look up things? Thanks.

But, he is not playing with Yuki either. So, why not just team up with Ramk and get him to play say two tournaments together even if it is a lower ranked tournament where Ramk can play singles qualies or whatever. Why is that not an option? The Asian Games debacles makes me be a bit afraid of a Bopa...

Who is the best partner for Rohan according to some of you who follow the game, watch doubles, etc. more closely? I have not watched much doubles and only watched Sumit this year.

Excellent!

But, I think all of their keeping in T20Is is about the same. And, we should just choose the best batter. Then, the Batting I...

We don't really have much except Chopra anyway. And, that too is in threat from a 20-year old German. But, I think Chopra will still hold.

Sumit is also afraid because of his past injuries. So, may be he is over-cautious. But better over slightly than under if it does not upset his rhythm.

They meet the local pair of Struff and Miles.

Pacesetters should not be awarded medals if they are going to let people pass.

Yes, only when I miss my drug for one day, do I realize the power of spinach! Thank you so much.

So after several matches more, the leaderlist: Impact Ratings/match (qual: 3 matches): Bumrah, Mayank Y, Asutosh, Kuldeep, Kuldeep, Parag, Rana, Chahal, Dube, Abhishek, Rohit No, the Kuldeep, Kuldeep is not a typo. Those are two different Kuldeeps. Among batters, the top 8 would be: Ashutosh, Parag,...

I hope he won't lose the momentum by taking off for too long. Each day of the clay season counts.

He will lose the momentum. But, if his body will not take it, it will not take it. He is the best judge.

Hmm, I am now trying to figure out who this is.

Over 35 was veteran then. Is it still the case? I think veteran should be moved up to over 40 at least now. Or after one formally retires over 35. This may be practically the case since most possibly Nadal and Djokovic are not really interested in the veterans tournament.
