Two of the best teams on paper in PKL 11 battle it out on Friday, November 22, at the Noida Indoor Stadium. It's the Jaipur Pink Panthers, led by the raid machine Arjun Deshwal who take on the Dabang Delhi KC, who now have the fearsome duo of Ashu Malik and the fit-again Naveen Express leading their charge.
Both teams are on 35 points each going into this match, but with Jaipur having two games in hand over Delhi, the pressure will be on Ashu Malik and company to register a victory here. Both teams have been on a decent run recently, with Jaipur winning four out of their last five matches, while Delhi are unbeaten in their last five.
This should be a fascinating clash, and on that note, let's look at the top three Dream11 surprise picks for this fixture.
Trending
#3 Gaurav Chillar (DEF) (DEL)
Dabang Delhi's right cover Gaurav Chillar will have a major role to play for Delhi in this fixture, especially with him going up against Arjun Deshwal, who is most defenders' nightmare. However, he is a right raider, and as much as that means Gaurav might be at risk of getting sent to the bench multiple times, it also provides him an opportunity to record a Dream11 haul.
In four matches, he has scored seven tackle points for Delhi, and has looked pretty solid in that right cover position. At an affordable price of eleven credits, he could be a solid Dream11 enabler, while also scoring some handy points himself.
#2 Neeraj Narwal (ALL) (JAI)
Neeraj Narwal has always been a player with immense potential, but barring a decent PKL 9 with the Bengaluru Bulls, he hasn't been able to fully live up to it, but he has been an invaluable asset for the Jaipur Pink Panthers this season.
Operating as an able support raider for Arjun Deshwal alongside Abhijeet Malik, Neeraj Narwal has offered Jaipur a different dimension in the raiding department since he's a left raider. He's also been very handy in defense, diving in with some really well-timed ankle holds, further increasing his Dream11 appeal in the process.
He can definitely add to his 30 raid points and seven tackle points in this fixture and could be a valuable Dream11 differential.
#1 Naveen Kumar (RAI) (DEL)
The raiding prowess of Naveen Kumar needs no introduction, with the Delhi co-captain one of the best talents this league has produced and one of only eight raiders to have breached the 1000 raid points - mark in the PKL.
While he has been battling an injury since the start of last season, even suffering one early in PKL 11, he returned to their starting 7 for the match against the Gujarat Giants, finishing with nine raid points on the night.
A player of his quality won't stay quiet for too long, and despite going up against a tough Jaipur defense, expect him to rack up the raid points. With him returning from injury, his Dream11 ownership is somewhat low, and for his Dream11 backers, he could be a powerful differential.
