Here is hoping this knight does not end up sidelined for some 19 plus moves as in yesterdays game.
I was thinking the same thing. " A knight on the rim is dim" However, this is obviously home preparation, and if you look at the move is seems logical. It somewhat forced Bb5, therefore, allowing black to force the issue somewhat.
Moving and leaving the Knight on the side line is not very
smart. Looks like Anand will be fighting just to get a draw
again today.

<Sigh>
BTW, India play Australia in W20-20 Cricket world cup
I think Anand lost the last game he played with this opening.
Maybe he can improve on this game.
Best,
Gerold.
Yes he did, that was the 1st game of this match.

Anand's play in this match has reminded me so much of Kramnik's style of play.
