In a rematch of the Pro Kabaddi League Season 2 final, Bengaluru Bulls will take on U Mumba tonight (Monday, November 18) at the Noida Indoor Stadium. Both teams have had a contrasting season so far in 2024.
Speaking of the Bulls' performance first, the Bengaluru-based franchise sit 11th in the points table with only two wins from 10 matches. They have only one victory in the last five outings. Their negative score difference of -73 shows how disappointing the team's performance has been in the Pro Kabaddi League 2024.
On the other hand, U Mumba are fourth in the PKL standings, having won six out of their 10 games. The Mumbai-based franchise have been in fine form lately, winning four of their last five matches. U Mumba will start as the favorites to win tonight's game.
Before the match between U Mumba and Bengaluru Bulls starts, here's a glance at the three players Dream11 users can pick as captain or vice-captain in their fantasy teams.
#1 Ajit Ramesh Chouhan, U Mumba
Left raider Ajit Ramesh Chouhan has been the find of the season for U Mumba in PKL 11. The rising star stands fifth on the raiders' leaderboard with 91 raid points from just 10 matches.
Shedding some more light on Ajit's numbers in Pro Kabaddi League 2024, the left raider has an impressive raid strike rate of 68 percent, while he also has five super raids and four Super 10s to his name. In U Mumba's previous PKL match against Tamil Thalaivas, Ajit returned with eight raid points.
Considering that the Bengaluru Bulls' defense has proved weaker than the Thalaivas this season, Ajit should score big tonight.
#2 Manjeet Dahiya, U Mumba
Another U Mumba player who can be a reliable option for captaincy or vice-captaincy in fantasy contests tonight is Manjeet Dahiya. The tall all-rounder produced a match-winning performance against the Tamil Thalaivas a few nights ago, earning a total of 10 points in the match.
Manjeet stole the show by scoring seven touch points, one bonus point, and two tackle points. If he continues in the same vein, he can be the game-changer in the Dream11 contests. Looking at his performance in the last game, it won't be wrong to say that Manjeet is the best choice for captaincy or vice-captaincy in fantasy contests tonight.
#3 Nitin Rawal, Bengaluru Bulls
Bengaluru Bulls all-rounder Nitin Rawal has fought like a lone warrior for the team in the defense. Rawal has earned 34 tackle points from 10 matches, averaging 3.4 tackle points per game. Besides, he can chip in with valuable raid points.
Looking at how the rest of the Bengaluru Bulls team has performed in Pro Kabaddi League 2024, there is no better option than Nitin Rawal for captaincy or vice-captaincy from the Bulls squad.
Rawal can score a lot of fantasy points with his defense skills. On top of that, he earned seven tackle points in his last Pro Kabaddi League game against Dabang Delhi KC a few nights ago, making him a hot pick for captaincy or vice-captaincy.
