Arjun Erigaisi, the young Indian prodigy who broke into the world’s top 5 at just 22, faces legendary Magnus Carlsen, holder of the all-time rating record of 2882. Carlsen, world champion from 2013 to 2023, is renowned for wringing wins out of seemingly drawn positions — a relentless quality that makes him dangerous deep into any endgame. In the razor-sharp Sveshnikov Sicilian, a favourite battleground of the elite, this clash of generations is set to ignite.
