Amina - Pranesh
White's all-out attack 19.Bg5 does not work. 19...hxg5 20.Nxg6 Rf8 21.Nxf8+ Qxf8 and Black gains a substantial advantage. White might have managed to expose the black king by giving up her two pieces for a rook, however, the lack of development hinders White from causing any damage. Pranesh had no difficulty converting his advantage into a win.
