"I had help from the people analyzing the game, computers, and the graciousness of Anand sir himself to treat the game as a learning experience. This was for fun and charity. In hindsight, it was quite silly as I didn't realise all the confusion that can get caused due to this. Apologies," he added.

The All India Chess Federation (AICF) Secretary Bharat Chauhan has said it is "unfortunate" to see unfair methods employed in a charity chess game by Zerodha co-founder Nikhil Kamath against five-time world champion Viswanathan Anand.
Kamath defeated Anand in a Covid-19 relief charity match. However, reports claimed Kamath manipulated the game to register a win. The AICF secretary termed it as a "bad" move by Kamath and said it shouldn't have happened.
