@RamKuma68033593 @sumanthraman He was not from Tamil Nadu. His parents at very young ages had migrated from TN to Sri Lanka with their parents. Murali was born in Kandy and grew up there developing his cricket through school cricket.

@RHaresh77823 @UpdatesChennai Oh no - they already suffer due to over tourism - too much crowd going there in non rainy seasons - because number of developed convenient touristic spots in India is still insufficient for vast majority of masses who wish to experience. Better to develop lesser known spots

@GMastrokoukos @ChessArbitress @ChristianHKuhn @TelegraphChess @goranurosevic @chessdom @Chess__News @TarjeiJS Ok now I got the points for the issues raised then for non inclusion on Jan 1 . So FIDE had updated few days later than Jan 1st suppose- in the tabultion in "rating progress chart" tab for Gukesh and Ding the 14 championship games (Nov-to Dec 2025) are counted for Jan. rating:

@ChessArbitress @ChristianHKuhn @GMastrokoukos @TelegraphChess @goranurosevic @chessdom @Chess__News @TarjeiJS Correct. Same reason why the Tata Steel Tournament 2025 (16 Jan to 03 Feb ) changes in live ratings are not reflected in the FIDE ratings for February '25 already released today (Jan 31st)

[K. Sethu | கா. சேது @kaasethu]

@GMastrokoukos @TelegraphChess @goranurosevic @chessdom @Chess__News @TarjeiJS For example, the current Tata Steel Chess Tournament started on January 18th and will conclude on 04 February. If you check the FIDE Fenbruary ratings (released today January 31st), for all the players of Masters and Challengers the ratings are frozen at January '25 ratings only

@GMastrokoukos @TelegraphChess @goranurosevic @chessdom @Chess__News @TarjeiJS When a tournament spans across a month into the next, the update takes place only in the month following the tournamnet end....

@KCTweetX @AdiKumarSaroj @TaniaSachdev Then why Telengana top chess players / federation members last April (after Gukesh won Candidates) called for more support from state government to match powerhouse TN ?

@WebprogrPRO Correction: not 7.5-7.5 at the end of above but it is 7.5 - 6.5

[K. Sethu | கா. சேது @kaasethu]

@WebprogrPRO There are maximum only 14 games (which if ends up 7-7:will be followed up by tie breakers). So it is not possible for a end result of 10-5. If wins next two matches he becomes champ with 8-5 result. He can also win championship straight with scores of 7.5-5.5, 8-6 or 7.5- 7.5

[K. Sethu | கா. சேது @kaasethu]

@HH73856572 @WebprogrPRO Besides all rest e ending in draw is sufficient for Gukesh to win with 7.5 - 6.5

[K. Sethu | கா. சேது @kaasethu]

@HH73856572 @WebprogrPRO Even 9-5 eventuality is not feasible because once a player reaches 7.5 or 8 the match is over and that player is the champ!

@kesavantcm @dmuthuk In Chennai Besant Nagar (near the Velankani church end), I had find in some places even 1000 Mbits D/L speed by Airtel. But regardless of the high speeds out in the open both of them drop speeds to 4G+ or lesser ranges inside buildings and houses !😒

[K. Sethu | கா. சேது @kaasethu]

@kesavantcm @dmuthuk When both rolled out 5G two years back, here in Chennai I had found Jio D/L speeds were then higher (like max 300 - 500 Mbits out in the open) than Airtel - but after a few months Jio did not improve further but Airtel reached even higher speeds
