The Haryana Steelers and the Jaipur Pink Panthers will face off in the 14th match of Pro Kabaddi 2024 on Thursday, October 24, at the Gachibowli Indoor Stadium in Hyderabad.
The Steelers were without their captain Jaideep Dahiya for their match against the Puneri Paltan. The left-cover missed out due to a potential illness, and it remains to be seen if he'll recover in time for this one. Under Rahul Sethpal's leadership, the Steelers tried their best, but even with Mohammadreza Shadloui in their ranks, they were no match for the Paltan, losing by a 10-point margin.
Meanwhile, after a close win (39-34) against the Bengal Warriorz, Jaipur won more convincingly against the Telugu Titans, decimating Pawan Sehrawat and company 52-22, with Arjun Deshwal scoring 19 raid points.
This fixture is a rematch of last season's semi-final, and while Jaipur will seek revenge, Haryana will look to get their season up and running.

HAR vs JAI Dream11 Team Prediction Top Picks, Pro Kabaddi 2024, Match 14
Raider - Arjun Deshwal
Arjun Deshwal has been the best raider in the league over the last few seasons, and he appears to be at the peak of his prowess again this time. He has been unstoppable in the first couple of matches, and despite him going up against Shadloui in Haryana's left corner in this match, he's undoubtedly the best Dream11 raider pick.
Defender - Ankush Rathee
Ankush Rathee should be everyone's first-choice Dream11 defensive pick in this match. The left-corner returned to form in their dominant win over the Titans, picking up two tackle points. Against an unconvincing-looking Haryana raiding unit, he has all the chances of scoring a High 5.
All-Rounder - Mohammadreza Shadloui
While it took some time for him to get going, Shadloui started his stint with the Haryana Steelers with a solid defensive outing, scoring four tackle points. He was the best Dream11 asset last season, and despite the change in franchise, he remains a huge threat and is the best all-rounder pick whenever he plays.

HAR vs JAI Expert Tips for Pro Kabaddi 2024
Despite the quality of Mohammadreza Shadloui, you have to admit that Jaipur is the stronger team on paper in this Pro Kabaddi match. It could benefit your team by picking four or even five players from Arjun Deshwal's side, with Shadloui and stand-in captain Rahul Sethpal the only must-haves from Haryana.
Their raiders Shivam Patare and Vinay could be decent differentials, and so could Jaipur's right-corner Lucky Sharma. When it comes to captaincy, one simply can't look past Arjun Deshwal and Mohammadreza Shadloui.
