FIDE World Champion Rustam Kasimdzhanov: Winning six games in a row in chess is akin to hitting six sixes in an over in cricket -- easy to think of difficult to achieve.
In chess, the most famous six-wins-in-row streak was achieved in the 1971 World Championship cycle when Bobby Fischer demolished Mark Taimanov 6-0 in the Candidates Quarterfinals.
Five decades later, India's Arjun Erigaisi achieved a 6-0 result in his first six games in the 45th Chess Olympiad in Budapest, as he played a big role in India's maiden triumph in the most prestigious team tournament in chess.
