Chess: Sixth draw for Viswanathan Anand

Indian Grandmaster and defending champion Viswanathan Anand had to settle for another draw against challenger Boris Gelfand of Israel in the sixth game of the World Chess Championship here yesterday.

The game was drawn in just 29 moves and Anand still had 30 minutes more than his Israeli counterpart. In the seventh game on Sunday Gelfand will again get white pieces. Given the way things have been turning out for Anand especially when playing black, it seems another draw is a real possibility.u00a0
