Second Draw Keeps World Championship Match Even

Anand surprised chess fans the world over today by playing 1. d4 in his first game as White. He may have managed to gain a slight advantage over Kramnik, but settled for a draw under heavy time pressure -- Anand would have had to make 8 moves in about 2 minutes to reach the time control. Today's game:

White: Viswanathan Anand
Black: Vladmir Kramnik
1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3 Bb4 4.f3 d5 5.a3 Bxc3+ 6.bxc3 c5 7.cxd5 Nxd5 8.dxc5 f5 9.Qc2 Nd7 10.e4 fxe4 11.fxe4 N5f6 12.c6 bxc6 13.Nf3 Qa5 14.Bd2 Ba6 15.c4 Qc5 16.Bd3 Ng4 17.Bb4 Qe3+ 18.Qe2 0-0-0 19.Qxe3 Nxe3 20.Kf2 Ng4+ 21.Kg3 Ndf6 22.Bb1 h5 23.h3 h4+ 24.Nxh4 Ne5 25.Nf3 Nh5+ 26.Kf2 Nxf3 27.Kxf3 e5 28.Rc1 Nf4 29.Ra2 Nd3 30.Rc3 Nf4 31.Bc2 Ne6 32.Kg3 Rd4 draw agreed.

With the score tied at 1-1, the tension is beginning to mount. Who will make the first breakthrough? After tomorrow's rest day, the players will be back at the board on Friday, when Kramnik has White.
