Description

This week on Game Time, hosts Vinayakk Mohanarangan and Amit Kamath are joined by Mayank Chaudhary to discuss a possible power shift in women’s chess. For decades, the game has been dominated by Chinese players — but with two Indian women recently battling it out for the World Cup title, while two Chinese players competed for third place, signs are emerging that a new Indian era could be on the horizon. Tune in for insights on what this moment means for Indian chess and how the landscape of the women’s game is evolving.
