    I lost to her in a league match in London last year. She sat on a cushion so she could see the board better! Many congratulations.

    Not just Indian origins, but Indians have taken the Chess World by Storm. Pragg, Vaishali, Vidit, Gukesh, Arjun are some examples.

      Sorry but by descibing her as "Indian Origin" your racism is showing. Why would you refuse to acknowledge her nationality? She's BRITISH. Is that so hard for you to say?

      @@KenFullman First things first: Racism - From the words of Wikipedia, it is defined as "Racism is discrimination and prejudice against people based on their race or ethnicity." I never discriminated her in my comment. Neither do I do anywhere else. Telling about someones origin isn't discrimination I believe. Thats just a fact which shows that where her roots originally were, that again means that her mother and/or father and even her grandparents are from a different country, and this is what I believe a country's origin mean. Saying country's origin of a person is not racism. Learn the meaning of racism.
      Secondly: I never said she was Indian. She is British and that is a fact. And moreover, I was emphasizing on the fact that Indians were taking the chess world by storm and not only Indian origins. You cannot deny the fact that her parents are originally Indian which is another way of saying she is of Indian origin. I prefer to speak facts and it is not hard at all.
      So the reality is: She is BRITISH and is of INDIAN ORIGIN. Is it so hard for you to understand? Please educate yourself about Racism. You people don't know the meaning of racism and use it in every other comment.
      Have a good day.

      @@prrockzedYour racism comes so naturally you don't even realise when you're being racist to the BRITISH. I never claimed you were being racist towards this girl. Why did it take my complaint to get you to admit that she's British?
      I have nothing but respect for the Indians. I'm also proud of the positive influence they've had on our nation (and all of civilisation) From Brahmagupta's invention of Zero to Ramanujan's massive contributions to the advancement of modern mathematics (and yes,all the chess masters as well).
      But when the word "British" is so obviously being airbrushed out of this particular story, it becomes conspicuous by it's absence.
      Being British is nothing this girl needs to be ashamed of.

      ​@@KenFullman Got it. If I/someone says 'Rishi Sunak and Vivek Ramaswamy are of Indian origins' without really mentioning their nationality then they are being racist towards that particular country(here, in the UK and the USA respectively).
      According to you, when a person mentions the nationality of someone when mentioning their origins, only then is the person not racist. Mentioning the nationality(when mentioning origins) is a must.
      And yeah, I too respect everybody who respects us. I have nothing against Britishers who are not racist.
      But still, since I didn't mention her nationality(which is British) then I am racist(towards Britain), so let me be(according to you). Peace✌.

    Kid pretty cool. I like watching this Russian league of Chess players. I don't really know how to play, but I like watching them move their pieces. Some of the little kids move their pieces like the pieces these fantasy beings, float on air. People, who know a subject too good, like chess, I would imagine, are way into strategy to notice board game mastery, a game of milliseconds, or a game of sleight of hand and dexterity. That why a kid, like Bodhana, an ideal ambassador for super cool game like Chess. I don't think she move her pieces as good as this Russian kid, that I watch.
