CHENNAI: If one glances through the latest FIDE top-10 junior rankings, three from India feature in them. Grandmaster Arjun Erigaisi is in No. 2 spot behind Alireza Firouzja, while D Gukesh and Nihal Sarin are in the 6th and 10th spot respectively.
The other two young guns --- R Praggnanandhaa (11th) and Raunak Sadhwani (15th) aren’t too far behind. The 44th Olympiad --- kicking off on July 28 --- will see India’s next-generation stars in action at the big-ticket event.
