Overview

Queen's Indian Defense, with e3, Bb4+ Line is a specific line in the Indian Defenses family (ECO E14), arising from a recognised theoretical position.

The Indian Defenses group covers Indian defences — hypermodern lines where Black challenges the centre with pieces rather than pawns.

It begins with 10 plies and takes 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 e6 3. Nf3 Bb4+ 4. Nbd2 b6 5. e3 Bb7 to reach the canonical position.

The line refines Bogo-Indian Defense: Grünfeld Variation, which traces back to the root opening Indian Defense: Anti-Nimzo-Indian.
