World Chess Championship, Game 11: As it Happened...

New Delhi: The 11th game of the World Chess Championship is a must win game for five time world champion Viswanathan Anand, who is trialing by a full point to defending World Champion Magnus Carlson, of the 12-game series.

In today's game the entire pressure would be on the Indian chess wizard as the Norwegian will open the game with white pieces.

After ten games the score reads 5.5-4.5 in Carlson's favour.

Having two games left, pressure would certainly be on Anand, as Carlson just have to draw both the remaining games to retaining the crown he won last year against the Indian ace.

In the last game Anand failed to break the ice and played out another draw in the tenth game of the world chess championship on Friday.

So far we have seen seventh draws in ten games.
