The second game of the Magnus Carlsen- Viswananthan Anand starts at 17:30 IST (12:00 GMT). And if the first game was anything to go by, we are in for a thriller.

Highlights, analysis and tweets here:

And that's it. It's over. Carlsen wins. Clean win for the Norwegian. Just too good. He kept squeezing on the pressure.

The last time Anand played black against Carlsen -- at the World Rapid -- he won. Carlsen made a huge blunder then. But this is the classical format.

Today, Carlsen will have white pieces and as such, will set the tone of the match. Anand, with black, will have to soak up the pressure and do his best to stay in the match.

In the post-match conference after Game 1, Anand had said that playing with black isn't as big a disadvantage as it used to be once upon a time. We will have to see if that holds true.

The World Chess Championship match consists of 12 games with a classical time control: 120 minutes for 40 moves, then 60 minutes for 20 moves, and then 15 minutes plus 30 second per move until the end of the game. If the match is tied, a tie-break will be played on November 27th.
