The commendation is expected to be followed by a one carat diamond ring worth five lakh rupees to be presented to Anand by team India. It is in view of Anand conquering all three formats of knock out, round robin and match play as he went on to win his third title beginning with 2001 and in 2007 and now in 2008.

A rare combination of sports, one commending another, is expected to add a little more light on a day expected to be gloomy, only because of the weather.
