Beating reigning champions Triveni Continental Kings with a dominating 15-3 score, the PBG Alaskan Knights started the Tech Mahindra Global Chess League’s second season impressively. The no-increment time control of 20 minutes for the whole game surely helped in producing some very tense and exciting games on the first day in London.
Behind the PBG Alaskan Knights, two teams are currently in shared second place: the American Gambits, who beat the Mumba Masters 11-6, and the Alpine Sg Pipers, who defeated the Ganges Grandmasters with the same score.
Day 2 starts on Friday, October 4, at 8 a.m. ET / 14:00 CEST / 5:30 p.m. IST.
