# indian boy stuns the world no.1 Magnus Carlsen

```
A sixteen-year-old boy Rameshbabu Praggnananandhaa stunned Magnus Carlsen.
```

\

An [Indian](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/84678/what-if-indian-industrialist-gautam-adani-went-bankrupt) boy has expanded the pride of India by telling the world its capability and on Sunday, 20 February 2022 he beat the world’s number 1 chess player [Magnus Carlsen](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/94178/magnus-carlsen-the-distinguished-chess-player-belongs-to-which-country) during the Airthings Masters.

\

The boy also named ‘Pragg’ beat the world’s best player but it has been seen many times that Magnus has given many chances to the child by committing many [mistakes](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12952/the-8-major-mistakes-players-make-in-the-casinos) to allow the child.

India has congratulated the boy and also feels proud including [Sachin Tendulkar](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/35758/which-county-did-sachin-tendulkar-play-for) also gave his blessings to the child.

The boy has [become the third](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/32299/which-player-become-the-third-indian-to-take-hatrick-wickets-in-odi-matches) Indian Grandmaster to win [against](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/81332/the-approach-of-science-against-disease-epidemics) Norwegian after Vishwanathan Anand and Pentala Harikrishna.

\

After winning the game the boy said “I am very happy.”

##### Further said

“It’s about time to go to bed, as I don’t think I will have diner at 2.30 in the morning.”

\

He also said after the winning of the match “I think yesterday was not so good,” and “Today I think my play was much better, so I hope this continues for the next two days.”

This is not the first timer when the boys got any [international](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/85496/celebration-of-international-chocolate-day) award or any award of honor, he also in 2016 [became the youngest](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/47353/which-soviet-gymnast-became-the-youngest-ever-world-champion-men-s-in-1983) international master in [History](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/81373/indian-railways-create-history-with-it-s-shramik-special-trains) at the age of ten.
