Qatar 04: Youngsters have a field day

by Priyadarshan Banjan - 23/12/2015

The youngsters of the Indian contingent had a lucky day as many of them escaped from bad positions to earn draws, or as in the case of Vignesh NR, even win, against Wei Yi! Vaishali R. finally opened her account, however, her senior state-mate GM Venkatesh's woeful run continued. A complete report with loads of pictures, games, analysis, and a video report.

Qatar 04: Youngsters have a field day

Babies' day out! The Indian youngsters had a lucky day as a handful of our boys escaped from bad positions. FM Rohan Ahuja was losing to IM Nino Batsiashvili, who had drawn with Magnus in the first round, but she walked into a mate. IM Shardul Gagare had another strong showing as he settled for a draw with yet another 2600.

 

Anyway, the greatest upset of all:

IM Vignesh NR (2422) defended tenaciously and was on the way to a draw with the Chinese phenom Wei Yi (2730).

That is, until Wei Yi saw ghosts and blundered into a lost pawn ending.

WFM Vaishali R. (2313) scored the first point of her tournament.

Harshit Raja (2325) beat GM Natalia Zhukova (2488)

GM Surya Shekhar Ganguly drew with GM Yu Yangyi (2736) and is tied for the second place with 3.0/4.

IM Abhimanyu Puranik (2442) earned his fourth straight draw of the tournament, this time against GM Lu Shanglei (2618).

However, the young lad was lucky because the Chinese former World Junior Champion was completely winning, but he failed to find the resource that won.

He picked up two rooks of IM Sopiko Guramishivili (2638) by giving up his queen and slowly made progress until he reached the below-given position, and then he liquidated -- sweet.

A victory and three draws later, GM Vidit Gujrathi has reached 2.5/4.

IM Sagar Shah played a beautiful game, taking his time and outplaying GM Alex Lenderman (2626).

But time and tide wait for none, and when it was his turn to convert the advantage, he failed, as he had mere seconds left on the clock. When he reached the time control, Sagar was quite depressed with his position.
