The 115th match of Pro Kabaddi League 2024 will take place on December 16 between Dabang Delhi KC and Bengal Warriorz. It is a rematch of the seventh season's final. While both teams performed brilliantly in PKL seven, they have had contrasting tournaments this season.

Dabang Delhi KC are second in the Pro Kabaddi League 2024 points table right now. The Delhi-based franchise have registered 10 wins in 19 matches. They are just one victory away from securing a place in the PKL playoffs.

Meanwhile, Bengal Warriorz are just one defeat away from being eliminated. The Warriorz hold the 10th position in the standings, having managed only five victories in 18 matches. The Kolkata-based franchise need to win each of their remaining four matches to keep their slim hopes of qualifying for the playoffs alive.

Ahead of the crucial Pro Kabaddi League 2024 match between Dabang Delhi KC and Bengal Warriorz, here's a look at three players Dream11 users can pick as captain or vice-captain of their fantasy teams.


#1 Naveen Kumar, Dabang Delhi KC

Dabang Delhi KC raider Naveen Kumar has done a fine job for the team in their last few matches. He scored seven points to help Delhi beat tabletoppers Haryana Steelers in the 112th match of the tournament.

Overall, Naveen has earned 84 points in 12 matches of Pro Kabaddi League 2024. Although it has not been the best season of Naveen's career, he still averages seven points per match. He has also registered three Super 10s, which is why Naveen will be a decent choice for captaincy or vice-captaincy in the fantasy contests for the battle between Dabang Delhi KC and Bengal Warriorz.


#2 Ashu Malik, Dabang Delhi KC

Dabang Delhi KC captain Ashu Malik has been the best raider from his team. In fact, Malik is only behind Patna Pirates raider Devank Dalal in the Most Raid Points list of Pro Kabaddi League 2024.

Malik has scored 211 raid points this season. He is one of only two raiders to have crossed the 200 raid points mark in PKL 2024, which shows how consistent he has been.

The Delhi skipper scored a Super 10 in his last match against the Haryana Steelers. It would not be a surprise if he ends up scoring another Super 10 in the upcoming PKL 2024 match against the Bengal Warriorz.


#3 Nitesh Kumar, Bengal Warriorz

Bengal Warriorz right corner defender Nitesh Kumar has regained his confidence in the last few matches. Nitesh has been initiating quite a few tackles from the right corner position, which makes him a top choice for captaincy or vice-captaincy in the fantasy contests.

In Bengal Warriorz's previous PKL 2024 match against the UP Yoddhas, Nitesh stole the show by recording a High 5. He attempted seven tackles, and only two of them were not successful.

With three High 5s and one super tackle to his name in season 11, Nitesh will be hungry for more when he plays against Dabang Delhi KC. For the record, he has earned a total of 42 tackle points in 17 matches.
