Carlsen and Anand drew Game 10 of the championship match in Sochi on Friday. Eight-year-old Krisha Khandelwal of Bombay Scottish, who won the girls U-10 title, said that her idol Anand had a slim chance of staging a comeback. "Anand is my inspiration. Even if he loses the title, his respect in the chess fraternity will still remain the same. I follow the match on the internet and I feel that with just two more rounds to go, Carlsen will defend his title comfortably," said Krisha.
