Mumbai, February 23: Stating that he would love to defend his world crown at home, chess ace Vishwanathan Anand today said he would not mind putting his title on line against Russia’s Vladimir Kramnik, who had helped him during his successful campaign last year.
“India now has a couple of months to arrange a bid for the World Championship. For me that would be very exciting. I would love to play in India. And to play a World Championship would be fanstatic. If that happens that would be very good,” he told PTI today.
“But we won’t really know if the bid is won or not till the challenger is out. I really enjoyed playing in Hyderabad and would really love to play in India,” he added
