Koneru Humpy vs Divya Deshmukh, Women's Chess World Cup Final Live: Tie-break to decide champion today, Divya plays white first

Koneru Humpy vs Divya Deshmukh Chess Final Live: The FIDE Women's Chess World Cup final between India's Koneru Humpy and Divya Deshmukh remains undecided after the second classical game also ended in a draw, setting the stage for a thrilling tiebreak finale in Batumi, Georgia. Following a dramatic opening game filled with tactical missteps and recoveries, the second game showcased the depth of both players' preparation, particularly Divya's. Despite Humpy having the white pieces and initiating with the English Opening, Divya's timely shift to the Agincourt Defense and subsequent play in the Semi-Tarrasch variation allowed her to neutralize any early threats. Humpy, looking to capitalise with her bishop pair, sacrificed a pawn in the middlegame, creating momentary pressure. Divya briefly found herself in a difficult position but showed maturity beyond her years to navigate the complexities and simplify to an equal endgame. Both players traded pieces methodically, and a perpetual check forced the draw in just 34 moves, with a high accuracy rate of 98.8%. With both classical games drawn, the title will now be decided through rapid and blitz tiebreaks. Humpy, a two-time World Rapid Champion, brings considerable experience, but Divya has already proved her strength in this format by defeating elite players like GM Zhu Jiner and D Harika in earlier rounds. Notably, Divya had also beaten Humpy in 2023 to claim her first Women's Rapid title. The tiebreak format includes multiple rapid and blitz games with decreasing time controls, testing speed, accuracy, and nerves. Each round requires one player to outperform the other without a response win to claim the title. As Divya confidently stated post-match, 'She is a strong player. Hoping the tiebreaks go my way.' Monday's rapid showdown promises a gripping conclusion to a closely contested final between India's finest, a clash between youthful boldness and veteran resilience.

Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy: Who Will Take Trophy Home If India Win Final Test And Series Ends In Draw? Check Here

IND vs ENG: India pulled off a dramatic escape on Sunday, July 27, as they denied England a series win in the fourth Test at Old Trafford, Manchester. The hosts were firm favourites to seal the inaugural Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, needing just eight Indian wickets with nearly two days to play. However, India's resilience with the bat ensured the match ended in a draw, keeping the series alive at 2-1 in England's favour. Rahul and Gill Lay the Foundation Facing a daunting task, India's survival effort began with KL Rahul and Shubman Gill, who displayed remarkable patience and discipline to bat through the entirety of Day 4. Their stand wore down the English bowling attack and prevented early breakthroughs that could have led to a collapse. Jadeja and Sundar's Match-Saving Partnership On the final day, India were still under pressure, but Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar rose to the occasion. The pair put together an unbroken 203-run partnership that not only frustrated England but also shifted the momentum entirely. Sundar brought up his maiden Test century, while Jadeja remained unbeaten on 107, showcasing grit and maturity. Eventually, with the result inevitable, both teams agreed to shake hands and end the match as a draw—much to India's relief and England's disappointment. Series Heads to The Oval with Everything to Play For With the fourth Test drawn, the five-match series now stands at 2-1 in England's favour. The final Test will be played at The Oval starting Thursday, and India will need to win to level the series. A 2-2 result would be a moral victory for the visitors after being 2-1 down, but the big question remains who would retain the trophy? Who Will Hold the Trophy If Series Is Drawn? According to tradition in most bilateral Test series, if a series ends in a draw, the team that won the previous edition retains the trophy. In this case, while the 2021 Pataudi Trophy ended in a draw, England had beaten India 4-1 in 2018, technically making them the holders. However, the current series marks the inaugural edition of the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, replacing the Pataudi Trophy. This raises uncertainty over whether the 2018 result still applies or if a drawn series would mean the trophy is shared. As of now, neither the BCCI nor the ECB has issued an official clarification on the retention rules for the new trophy in the event of a drawn series.

Sania Mirza is biggest fan of this actor, wants to romance him in her biopic; Not Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Aamir Khan, name is....

Indian former professional tennis player Sania Mirza announced her retirement from tennis in 2023. Since then, there have been ongoing developments regarding her biopic. Reports suggest that a contract has been signed with Ronnie Screwvala's RSVP production house. As the project is still in its initial stages, the casting and direction are yet to be finalised. Last year, Sania Mirza came as a guest on 'The Great Indian Kapil Show '. Along with her, other real-life heroes also joined, like boxer Mary Kom, badminton star Saina Nehwal, and Paris Olympics medal hopeful 50-m rifle shooter Sift Kaur Samra. Will We See a Sania Mirza Biopic Soon? Kapil Sharma asked Sania Mirza that since Priyanka Chopra played Mary Kom in the biopic about the 48 kg/51 kg championship boxer, and Parineeti Chopra portrayed Saina Nehwal in the biopic of the badminton star who inspired a generation of Indian girls, whom would Sania Mirza choose to play her in a biographical movie about her life? Who will play Sania in Sania Mirza's biopic? Sania, who is known for her comebacks, volleyed: Is there another Chopra sister who can play this part? Speaking of male leads to play her 'love interest', Sania said she'd have to first find one in real life. Sania is divorced from Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Malik. The two have a five-year-old son Izhaan, who lives with Sania now. Continuing their discussion about who could play her love interest, Kapil asked if she would like to play the part herself if Shah Rukh Khan were cast opposite her. She said yes and also mentioned Akshay Kumar's name, adding, 'If Akshay is cast opposite me, I definitely would.'
