Adhikari,Kritisara vs. Joshi,Sindira - 10th Nepal Women Championship 2025 1/2-1/2
In the 10th Nepal Women Championship 2025 on January 29, 2025, between players Adhikari and Kritisara playing with white pieces against Joshi and Sindira playing with black pieces, Black's move Bxa6 can be analyzed as follows: By moving their queen to the a-file, Black gains tempo advantage by rapidly developing one of their most powerful pieces. This maneuver also forces White's opponent to respond to the material gain, potentially disrupting their plans. The choice to exchange queens instead of accepting a potential material deficit could be seen as a strategic decision to equalize the position rather than opting for an immediate material win.
The game's progression was likely influenced by Joshi and Sindira's consideration of a material trade as a viable option, despite White having a superior threat in the position.
