Maharashtra Chess League 2013






Cometh April, our TV is full of the Indian Premier League of cricket, that great Indian entertainment juggernaut. You ask, did I say `entertainment’? Of course! You see, in India, e.v.e.r.y.o.n.e watches cricket. Period. It doesn’t matter whether you know any basics of the sport, or for that matter any sport, but you are definitely a Chennai Super Kings fan or a Mumbai Indian sympathizer. After all, how can you be an Indian and not follow the contemporary Gods <sic> Sachin Tendulkar and Mahendra Singh Dhoni!? Unpatriotic. Unsporting.
