Bishal Basak (1592) who was ahead by an exchange against IM Koustav Chatterjee (2055) in the fourth round of Tata Steel Chess Festival 2021 All India Rapid Rating, created a blockade to prevent his opponent’s passed pawn from being pushed further.
Will the bishop pair find a breakthrough or will White’s stronghold prevail?
