Hi can you have subtitles? For those who want to watch it but can’t turn on the volume. Thanks
Gukesh is losing his charm and accuracy recently. May he come back strong else many strong players are coming up nowadays.
Perfect e.g of Dhoni..He didn't panick and he played solid defence
He said Gukesh is believing in himself more than his position 😅😅😅😅😂😂
Is it me or the commentary really speaks like arnab goswami?
How to fast checkmate
I would go on and on and learn with sagars commentary. Nubair played beautifil positional chess jist one small error and it was draw
Funny Moment24:42 The only sub-par / bad move he has played so far is offering a draw

Video has been very exciting because of Sagar' s Ravi shashti like commentry 😂
Best commentary ever. Reviving the interest to play chess and also giving more ideas on how to play.
At 11:31 after Bg5 what if black played f6 instead of Re8?
Gukesh when cornered like a leopard shows that fighting spirit.
17:30 i am beginer in chess ….can someone explain me how is that move offering a draw?
with some confidence that Shaikh guy could do wonders
Nubair has done bachelors in civil engineering as well!! apart from being at 2450 rated player..
Still chess players are trying to balance their higher education along with playing the game..

What is meaning "IM"?
Gukesh has been below his usual level of play nowadays
Gukesh was expected to do more.
I think his great performance was just a spike and he is back to his normal level
I just realize that Gukesh is a D.
Can someone please tell me how knight a4 is draw ?
In chess everyone bit everyone so how we judge who is best due to those reasons I thought everyone is great.
How do you know that he offered drawwhen he played knight to a4?
Just the best commentary. Sounds likea horse race😂😅❤
Nubair has been an IM since like 10 yrs now.. I remember he used to be all over the papers back then, hope he achieves his dream of becoming a gm soon
I think Gukesh should take rest like pragg and vidit.
Even top level chess players don't know how to win chess games sometimes.
One feels often by watching his games that Gukesh, though an exciting young player, is quite overrated by the Indian media.
Seems like Guki is in bad form but what a match by Nubair bhai.. Nubair bhai OP rukna nahi chahiye chat..👌👌👌
This video would not be so excitating without Sagar's intervention.
how is nubair wearing a watch. it is not allowed to wear while play right ?
Never seen Gukesh being so passive in recent times. Nuber gaining up space in the beginning was amazing ❤
When you are 20 yrs old, you just look down, act as everything is normal, as if you stole something. When you are 30 years old, you laugh and shake your head at how silly your opponent was for missing a win.
BiswaHacker at his best =)
Sagar Bhai's commentary adds a cherry on the cake!
Desi Attack by Nubair Bhai <3 should have finished the game… hope he becomes GM soon.
Gukesh strategy is simple. Once he is pushed back, started trading pieces. 😂😂😂
Magically wins 😂
I think it's so ride when nubair asked what was his mistake and gukesh didn't answer !!
Nubair was very much practiced chess but he only need to handle psychological tactics of otb to reach 2700
