The HinduKoneru Humpy and Dronavalli Harika, two champion mothers who face the uphill task of staying away from their daughters, are expected to play a lead role in Upgrad Mumba Masters in the inaugural Global Chess League featuring rapid games in Dubai next week. | Photo Credit: SPECIAL ARRANGEMENT Three-time World championship medallist, Dronavalli Harika, believes that her experience of playing in team events over the years should be very handy when she will be Humpy’s teammate. “The fact that all six teams in the fray have a mix of men, women, a lead name and a junior ensures a kind of novelty to the whole concept,” Harika informed Sportstar. On being Humpy’s teammate, Harika said having played with her so many times earlier, the two have “their own kind of rapport” which should help the team’s cause.
