The KID is alright (Fianchetto Variation)

While technically an A53 Old Indian Defence, the following game is merely my attempt at a Kings Indian D against a stronger opponent ..... which transposes to the Kings Indian Fianchetto Variation.
The pressure is on with both of my knights gunning for the F2 position and a smothered mate, a Queen sacrifice (declined), and a fork on the coveted F2 and my opponents rook.
With a bit of luck I surprised myself with a win.
