No words for Arjun but let's not forget that VD has also played all 6 games and has scored 5 out of 6 points. What a boon it is to have such strong player on board 4. As he mentioned it was a blindspot for him in yesterday's game else it would have been 5.5 out of 6. On the other hand, Pragg's game today was excellent. At some point when Arjun and VD were equal it was such a tense moment as Pragg's position was kinda worse. But he showed his class. Gukesh as usual can be relied on day in and day out. Both men and women team are extraordinary.

To all those who disliked the decision for VD on board 4 can shut their mouth now. Delivered when the team needed him. Also, Arjun is a beast🔥

​@@ptj1 Nah never underestimate sub 2500s or 2600+ , These players hold capabilities to beat even magnus at times , And sometimes players like Shak are put strategically to get points like AZE did.

[@buildmeup5315]

If you put all these 4 in any 4 of these positions...you will still probably get the same result

[@rijulgupta1597]

@@ptj1 Yes he gets to play easier opponents but I would still have that luxury of having Vidit (a candidate) over Nihal who some people wanted to be the board 4. I am not saying he is better than the other 3. Obviously Gukesh and Pragg are much stronger and have better results than Vidit. But the unnecessary hate and trolling that guy has to face from people is unbelievable. He is rightfully a good option to be on the 4th board. Look at his record in team tournaments. Well experienced. If it was blitz one could make a claim for Nihal but in classical Vidit is way better than him.

[@Vbio-m5q]

5:05:32 such a cool shot with Vidit in the foreground and Anish in the background on the opposite side 👌

I like the name Arjun better than Virat!! Hope it becomes more ubiquitous

Great play by both Indian teams, Chat pls stop being creepy about a female player like such She and hrshtt are already in relationship and u should behave accordingly..

[@satyamjha9250]

Lol u mean dvya and hrshit? Are you some paparazzi or what bruh? What source?

[@incrediblephoenix8359]

​@@satyamjha9250Here are some simple clues :- 1. They both have been in touch since 2022, in fact in that Olympiad Divyaa even recorded Hrshit's 69 pushups which is still on his Insta. 2. Hrshit is the only GM which follows Divyaa personal Insta handle (not the public one and won't write her private insta handle here). Also they don't follow each other account on Insta, but they both have liked each other pics innumerable times. 3. Many sudden and subtle jokes which they both crack at each other (an example is 4:02:31) or when Hrshit said in second round to Divyaa that her game is inspiring him to increase his tactical awareness and Divyaa blushed + many more examples are there.. So chat shouldn't write any vulgar or creepy things about them, specially about Divyaa.. Hope you guys understand and CBI doesn't delete it.. Thanks, India OP ❤️🔥✨

[@pacman4ever143]

Wait you mean Erigasi is not playing board 1 for India? Doesnt he have the highest rating in India? You mean hes playing lower rated GMs in board 3 of other countries??? Magnus & Fabiano etc plays board 1. Are you kidding me?? No wonder hes got 6 straight wins.. against expectedly much lower rated Board 3 or 4 players???And India is supposed to be proud of this strategy just to win the Olympiad???

[@ashutoshsingh669]

bro thought he did something now read the following carefully: 1. Arjun told in interview that players like gukesh, pragg have been playing elites so they are more suitable for board 1. 2. Even if Arjun is highest rated, that does not mean his other teammates are far below. Gukesh is 2764 and for perspective, the highest rated from Hungary in yesterday's game was 2715. so it would not have made any difference in the overall result whatsoever. 3. India can afford to send arjun to board 3 because other players are strong too and no other country has all 4 players rated above 2720. Magnus has to play board 1 because his teammates are only 2661, 2642, 2546 ELO. moreover, even the highest rated from china is not on board 1. MOST IMPORANT: 4. If you know how Olympiad works, it is almost certain that a top seeded country plays weaker opponents in the beginning. this is the exact reason of getting straight 6 wins not only because he was on board 3. Now that half of Olympiad is over, table toppers will get good chances of playing better countries. 5. Gukesh on board 1 is more than perfect because of upcoming world championship and for getting good experience and prep. One can not cry about strategy when the whole game is based upon strategies itself. Have a nice day.

[@TheSupermohit]

Why is Mamedyarov playing board 4 for AZB? Why is DIng playing board 1 for china? Why is Vitiugov playing board 1 for England? Why is Predke playing board 1 for Serbia? Why is Stremavicius playing board 1 for Lithuania? Stop with your nonsense.
