The Gujarat Giants take on the Telugu Titans in the 71st match of Pro Kabaddi 2024 on Saturday, November 23, at the Noida Indoor Stadium.
The Gujarat Giants come into this match on the back of a 39-39 tie against Dabang Delhi KC, with Parteek Dahiya powering their raiding department with a one-man show coming off the bench, scoring a whopping 20 raid points. With two wins in eleven matches, it's high time they start winning matches.
The Titans, meanwhile, have won eight games in twelve and are on a stellar run of form. After beating the Bengal Warriorz 31-29 in their last game, they'll want to add another win to their tally and maintain their place in the top half of the table.
Let's now look at the top three Dream11 surprise picks for this game.
#3 Himanshu Singh (RAI) (GUJ)
Himanshu Singh has been a valuable utility raider for the Gujarat Giants this season, and he could be a solid Dream11 surprise pick for this fixture. Scoring 26 raid points and four tackle points in nine appearances, a lot of them coming off the bench, Himanshu Singh could score some valuable points in both departments.
Himanshu Singh has been a valuable player for the Tamil Thalaivas in the past, scoring close to 70 points, operating as a utility player for them. Getting an opportunity to play a more central role for his side, he could be a useful Dream11 differential.
#2 Mohit (DEF) (GUJ)
Gujarat Giants' right cover Mohit has done a decent job so far in PKL 11, picking up ten tackle points in five matches so far. An average of two tackle points per match is a solid number for a cover defender. And against a raiding unit that doesn't really have a spearhead, Mohit could be one of the highest Dream11 point-scorers in this match.
He gathered plenty of experience, playing a lot as a substitute for Dabang Delhi KC last season, scoring 18 tackle points in 20 appearances. After making a good start to this edition, he could do well in this match and is a potential Dream11 surprise pick.
#1 Ankit Jaglan (DEF) (TEL)
Ankit Jaglan could be one of the highest-scoring Dream11 picks for this match, primarily because of his defensive position as a left corner. He's surprisingly really low-owned, but with a very high points ceiling, he could be a powerful differential option.
Ankit has had a decent season so far, scoring 19 tackle points in twelve matches so far, but even he'll feel he could improve on that number and could do so against the Giants. They've been one of the worst raiding units in the league and rank bottom for raid points scored per match. Given how good the Titans have been defensively, he could haul big.
