Dabang Delhi KC will face U Mumba in the second match of PKL 11 on Friday, October 18, at the Gachibowli Indoor Stadium in Hyderabad.

Dabang Delhi KC were one of the best teams last season, finishing third on the points table despite captain and star raider Naveen Kumar suffering a season-ending injury midway through their campaign. However, led by a stellar Ashu Malik and backed by an able corner combination, they had a solid group stage, but faltered in the Eliminator against the Patna Pirates.

Meanwhile, U Mumba started the season brightly, but a slump in form that began midway through their home leg never really came to an end as they finished on a disappointing 10th place. However, they've revitalized their defense by adding Sunil Kumar, their new captain, and left cover Parvesh Bhainswal, with Manjeet likely to lead their raiding unit, replacing Guman Singh.

Delhi beat U Mumba in both of their meetings last year, and they'll want to make it three out of three in this match. Can Sunil Kumar and Co. stop them? We'll find out on Friday night.

DEL vs MUM Dream11 Team Prediction Top Picks, Pro Kabaddi 2024, Match 2

Raider - Naveen Kumar

Even in the short spell before his injury in PKL 10, Naveen Kumar showcased his brilliance, scoring 71 raid points in just six matches. While some may have doubts over his ability since returning from injury, his records speak for themselves.

The team clearly backs him, naming him as the co-captain with Ashu Malik and he should be a top Dream11 pick as well.


Defender - Rinku

Rinku was arguably U Mumba's most consistent player last season, producing solid performances when he was fit. He scored 28 tackle points in nine games, but a season-ending injury meant he missed the rest of the season, coinciding with the downturn in U Mumba's fortunes.

He is one of the most reliable Dream11 defenders and a must-have for this match.


All-Rounder - Ashu Malik

Ashu Malik excelled in PKL 10, taking his game to another level when he was required to step up in Naveen Kumar's absence, scoring a whopping 276 raid points.

Even if Naveen's return to the side eats into some of those points, he should remain a stellar Dream11 option and a cut above the rest.

DEL vs MUM Expert Tips for Pro Kabaddi 2024

The biggest question for most in this match will be which of Ashu Malik and Naveen Kumar is the better Dream11 captaincy option and the impact that Naveen's return to the team will have on both their point-scoring prospects.

I feel that Ashu should be given preference with regards to captaincy in this one purely because of his form last season, and a small asterisk over Naveen's potential performance after returning from a long-term injury.

The competitive pricing of players for these two teams also means that one of Rinku, Sunil Kumar, and Yogesh Dahiya have to be sacrificed. All three of them can be selected, but only by using a budget enabler like U Mumba all-rounder Ajit Chauhan.
