Database and SF9+ suggestions (ev=±0.1): 2...Nf6, e6, c5, Nc6, g6. Cochrane always played 2...c5, so let's call it Old Indian attack: Cochrane defense:

Mohishunder always transposed to the King's Indian Attack by playing 3. g3. But it's a different story. In this thread I wanna discuss other options. SF9+ suggests 3. e4 as the best move (ev=+0.0, d=26).
