Former Pro Kabaddi League champions Bengal Warriorz will take on Sachin Tanwar's Tamil Thalaivas in the 57th match of PKL 11 tonight (November 16). The Noida Indoor Stadium will host this game.
Bengal Warriorz were in action last night as well. The Kolkata-based franchise locked horns with three-time champions Patna Pirates and lost by a colossal margin of 21 points. Patna scored 52 points against Bengal while conceding only 31 points.
The Warriorz will be keen to get back to winning ways because they after suffering two big defeats on the trot. They had previously lost against the Gujarat Giants by a margin of 28-47.
The Tamil Thalaivas, on the other hand, will try to take advantage of the Bengal Warriorz's poor form and record their fourth win of the season. The Thalaivas are currently 10th in the Pro Kabaddi League 2024 points table, having registered only three victories in nine outings.

Before the Dream11 teams are locked in for the clash between Tamil Thalaivas and Bengal Warriorz, here's a look at the three players fantasy users can pick as captain or vice-captain for their teams.
#1 Fazel Atrachali, Bengal Warriorz
The most successful defender in Pro Kabaddi League history, Fazel Atrachali has shown glimpses of returning to his golden form in PKL 11 but is yet to perform consistently for the Bengal Warriorz. The pressure of the captaincy and the poor performance of other defenders have hurt Fazel's momentum as well.
Fazel ended up scoring three points for his team against the Patna Pirates last night. He is a world-class defender and should be back in his top form soon.
He has notably earned 30 points in nine matches this season, averaging close to three points per game. Hence, he is a bankable player for captaincy or vice-captaincy in fantasy contests.
#2 Nitin Kumar Dhankar, Bengal Warriorz
Even though the Bengal Warriorz have suffered big defeats in their last two Pro Kabaddi League 2024 matches, raider Nitin Kumar Dhankar scored a Super 10 in both of these clashes. His ability to score bonus points has helped him boost his tally to 83 points in nine matches.
Considering that Nitin earned 11 raid points against the Patna Pirates just last night, he will be quite confident when he takes the mat against the Tamil Thalaivas. Expect Nitin to register another Super 10 in PKL 11 tonight.
#3 Narender Hoshiyar Kandola, Tamil Thalaivas
Narender Hoshiyar Kandola is the only Tamil Thalaivas player present in the Top 10 of the raiders' leaderboard. Kandola has scored 67 raid points in nine matches and is 10th on the list of top raiders in Pro Kabaddi League 2024.
While most of the kabaddi fans would prefer having Sachin Tanwar in their fantasy teams, Narender Kandola has done a better job for the Tamil Thalaivas this season. He can be the difference-maker in tonight's contest.
Given how the Bengal Warriorz defense has struggled in the last two matches, Narender could even end up scoring 20 raid points tonight. All eyes will be on Narender when the Thalaivas enter the Noida Indoor Stadium.
