When Praggnanandhaa's back was pushed to the wall | Arjun Erigaisi vs Pragg | FIDE World Cup 2023

When Praggnanandhaa played the second classical game, he was in a must-win situation against Arjun Erigaisi. That's because Arjun had won his first classical game. Now with the white pieces, Arjun just needed a draw. To fight for a win with black pieces against a player of Arjun's calibre is never easy. Would Pragg be able to do? Or would he be knocked out. At stake was a spot in the semi-finals of the FIDE World Cup 2023 and also the Candidates 2024. Commentary by IM Sagar Shah.
