Does Carlsen have a beef with Gukesh?

What this episode covers

In this episode, hosts Amit Kamath and Mihir Vasavda discuss Magnus Carlsen's remarks on Gukesh's 'understanding' of chess - one of the many critical remarks the former world champion has made on the reigning champ. They analyse the strengths and weaknesses of Gukesh and Sindarov, who will face off for the world title later this year, and end the episode by discussing why India's bid for 2038 Asian Games sounds more reasonable than other events the country wants to host.Produced by Niharika Nanda and Shashank BhargavaEdited and mixed by Suresh Pawar
