What he says about his chess carrier :-
"I became an under-12 champion in the 16th national children’s chess championship held in Kolkata in 2002,” he said. “I wanted to grow up to become a chess player and in the next year I got to represent India in the Asian Youth Chess Championships in the under-12 event. The tournament was held in Kozhikode [Kerala] and I ended up between 13-18 positions.
“Then I went on to participate in the World Youth Championships in Halkidiki, Greece but finished 67th. So I wanted to get more training to play chess as I learned chess through computer. I knew that to progress further in chess and get good training, I would need at least Rs500,000 [Dh30,488] a year and I tried my best to get sponsors but couldn’t so I gave up chess.”
Interesting! I just browsed and yes u r ryt. Thnks 4 makng us knw about him.
Thanks @varad, amrita maam and alisha
YOu would think chess would be more popular since it is something you can do during those long-ass cricket games.
thats interesting, not rlly indian nor something curious about history but cool
He is a really good leg spinner but I did not know he played chess thanks for telling me

Very helpful discussion. For anyone needing quick and accurate calculations, you can try this abu dhabi end of service calculator it's simple and aligned with UAE labor laws.
When Yuzvendra Chahal represented India in World Youth Chess Championship no one noticed but when he bowled around 20 overs for a club in domestic cricket league everyone talking about him.....Thats the influence cricket have in Indian society. He is the only India to have a Fide rating 1900+ and as well as an international Cricket player who got man of the match in the recent IPL match.
