Praggnanandhaa wins UzChess Cup Masters, becomes top-ranked Indian

Grandmaster R. Praggnanandhaa became India's top-ranked chess player in the live ratings after winning the UzChess Cup Masters 2025, in Tashkent on Friday (June 27, 2025). The win took Praggnanandhaa's live rating to 2778.3, making him World No. 4 — up three places — as he achieved his highest career ranking. The 19-year-old leapfrogged world champion D. Gukesh (2776.6) and Arjun Erigaisi (2775.7), who was India's top-ranked player until Thursday (June 26, 2025) but has now slipped to World No. 6. Magnus Carlsen (2839.2) remains No.1, followed by Hikaru Nakamura (2807.0) and Fabiano Caruana (2784.2). Praggnanandhaa started the final day a point behind local favourite Nodirbek Abdusattorov and half a point behind Javokhir Sindarov. A crucial win over Abdusattorov in the final round helped him join both players at 5.5 points at the end of the round-robin stage. Erigaisi missed a chance to make it a four-way tie after drawing with Aravindh Chithambaram. In the first round of tiebreaks, a double round-robin blitz, all three players finished with two points. Abdusattorov and Sindarov drew both their games, while Praggnanandhaa beat both with white but lost with black. In the second tiebreak, Praggnanandhaa drew with Abdusattorov with white and beat Sindarov with black. Sindarov's win over Abdusattorov sealed the title for the Indian. This was Praggnanandhaa's third title of the year, after wins at the Tata Steel Chess Tournament and the Grand Chess Tour Superbet Classic in Romania. He was also runner-up at the Stepan Avagyan Memorial earlier this month. Five-time world champion Viswanathan Anand congratulated Praggnanandhaa on social media, posting: 'Congrats to @rpraggnachess for winning the Uzbekistan Chess Cup. Third major classical victory this year. Of all his wins this year, this one seemed the least likely with just two rounds to go.' Congrats to @rpraggnachess for winning the Uzbekistan chess Cup. Third major classical victory this year. Of all his wins this year, this one seemed the least likely with just two rounds to go@fide_chess (1/3) — Viswanathan Anand (@vishy64theking) June 27, 2025 He continued, 'However, he defeated Arjun Erigaisi and today in the crucial match defeated Nodirbek Abdusattorov to tie for first place.' 'In an impressive demonstration of character he won his third tiebreak of the year as well. He is deservedly the new number four in the chess world and the highest rated player in India,' he concluded.

Competitive Jasprit Bumrah had the spark and vibe to represent India: Priyank Panchal

Former Gujarat player Priyank Panchal said that Jasprit Bumrah always had the spark, vibe and willingness to represent India at the highest level. Bumrah is considered to be one of the best bowlers in all formats and is the No.1 Test bowler in the world at the moment. But before his exploits on the international circuit, the pacer made a name for himself while playing for Gujarat. advertisementDuring the 2016-17 Ranji Trophy season, where Panchal scored 1310 runs in 10 matches, Bumrah picked up 24 wickets from seven matches. This also included a spell of six for 29 against Jharkhand in the semi-final. The pacer played a big role as Gujarat defeated Mumbai in the final to lift the title. Speaking to India Today in an exclusive interaction, the former Gujarat batter said that Bumrah was always competitive and everyone knew if he was given the chance, he would succeed for India. Panchal felt that Bumrah's unique bowling technique made him a standout and the pacer is where he is right now because of his hard work and experience off the field. "I think he had that spark and that vibe and the willingness to represent the country at the highest level, and even at that time, he was so competitive. And you can imagine that if you get a chance with that competitiveness in the next level, you will definitely be successful. So he's successful because he has worked hard."advertisement"He has faced so many challenges like out of cricket. He was someone we all wanted him to represent the country because he has that different kind of bowling technique. You don't get to see this kind of bowler very often. Like you can get to see, I think in one in 20 years, I would say this kind of bowlers. And doing it so consistently is also a thing. So I think credit goes to him because he worked hard. He learned from all the experiences and he's still learning," said Panchal. How is it like facing Bumrah in the netsPanchal then said that Bumrah is someone who remains competitive in the nets and always troubled the batters with his deliveries during practice. "Bumrah is so competitive. Like even if I play a cover drive, so the next ball would be either a bouncer or a yorker. Even in the nets, like we were playing 40 to 50 balls in nets and out of those 40 to 50 balls, he must be bowling, I think 6 to 8 balls to each batsman . Out of 6 to 8 balls we will be having two bouncers. Then when you are done. That's it. 1 to 2 balls we have to leave it because it's like we were preparing for the day game. So that's the story," said Panchal. Bumrah is currently part of the Indian team that is touring England. - EndsTune InMust Watch
