China strikes first, India retaliates!

by Alejandro Ramirez
3/4/2015 – The Chinese team was able to take the first round 2.5-1.5 on the hands of a very capable Ding Liren, who unquestionably outplayed Adhiban. However their lead did not last very long: Wei Yi missed a good chance to score in round two while Lalith was able to secure a win for the Indian team, beating Wang Chen in a long endgame and tying up the series, 4-4.
