Correct Answerसही उत्तर
B. Alpine SG PipersB. Alpine SG Pipers
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Alpine SG Pipers.
According to the February 2026 current affairs source, Indian Grandmaster R Praggnanandhaa and Grandmaster Anish Giri led Alpine SG Pipers to the Global Chess League 2025 Season 3 title in Mumbai.
Their team defeated the defending champions, Triveni Continental Kings, to secure its maiden Global Chess League championship.
The source gives the match scores as 4-2 and 4.5-1.5.
These scores are important because objective questions can ask not only the champion but also the defeated defending champion or the result.
Anish Giri is highlighted for consistent victories during the contest, while R Praggnanandhaa produced a decisive victory against Vidit Gujrathi.
Thus, the current-affairs item contains several useful person-team and player-opponent associations.
Alpine SG Pipers → champions; Triveni Continental Kings → defending champions defeated; Praggnanandhaa and Anish Giri → leaders of the victorious side; Vidit Gujrathi → defeated by Praggnanandhaa in a decisive game.
The title was the maiden GCL championship for Alpine SG Pipers, making the achievement historically significant for the team.
The source identifies the season as Global Chess League 2025 Season 3 and the location as Mumbai.
Students should not confuse the year of the competition, 2025, with the February 2026 current-affairs compilation in which the news appears.
For examination revision, remember the compact chain: GCL 2025 Season 3 → Mumbai → Alpine SG Pipers → maiden title → led by R Praggnanandhaa and Anish Giri → defeated defending champions Triveni Continental Kings → match scores 4-2 and 4.5-1.5 → Praggnanandhaa's decisive win against Vidit Gujrathi.
Since the question asks for the champion team, option B, Alpine SG Pipers, is correct.
सही उत्तर Alpine SG Pipers है। February 2026 current affairs source के अनुसार Indian Grandmaster R Praggnanandhaa और Grandmaster Anish Giri ने Alpine SG Pipers को Mumbai में Global Chess League 2025 Season 3 title जिताया। Team ने defending champions Triveni Continental Kings को हराकर अपना maiden Global Chess League championship secure किया। Source match scores 4-2 और 4.5-1.5 देता है। Competitive examinations में champion team के साथ defeated defending champion और match score भी पूछा जा सकता है। Anish Giri को consistent wins के लिए highlight किया गया है, जबकि R Praggnanandhaa ने Vidit Gujrathi के खिलाफ decisive victory हासिल की। इसलिए इस current affair से कई important associations बनते हैं: Alpine SG Pipers → Champions; Triveni Continental Kings → Defending champions defeated; Praggnanandhaa + Anish Giri → victorious team के leading Grandmasters; Vidit Gujrathi → Praggnanandhaa के खिलाफ decisive game में defeated player। यह Alpine SG Pipers का maiden GCL championship था, इसलिए achievement team के लिए historically significant है। Source season को Global Chess League 2025 Season 3 और venue को Mumbai बताता है। Students को competition year 2025 और current-affairs compilation February 2026 के बीच confusion नहीं करना चाहिए। Revision chain: GCL 2025 Season 3 → Mumbai → Alpine SG Pipers → maiden title → R Praggnanandhaa + Anish Giri → defeated Triveni Continental Kings → scores 4-2 and 4.5-1.5 → Praggnanandhaa defeated Vidit Gujrathi। इसलिए option B सही है।
