Indian top woman player Humpy Koneru is not in the team. This would usually be a shocking surprise, but this is not the first time that Koneru skips the major tournament. Obviously, the differences with AICF are still not settled.
The 45th World Chess Olympiad is set to take place from 10-22nd September in Budapest, Hungary.
