Kabaddi Masters Dubai 2018, India vs Kenya: Predicted team and probable starting line-up

<p>
Indian players in action against Kenya in the first match between the two

Kenya's predicted line-up

David Mosambayi (C) (All-rounder)

David is the only Kenyan raider to have played in the Pro Kabaddi League and hence brings a good amount of experience to the side, making his contribution vital for the team. He is the finest all-rounder in the team and is expected to be a part of the starting seven.

Patrick Nzau Muvai (All-rounder)

Patrick is another talented all-rounder who takes an interest in raiding more than defending. Haryana Steelers picked him up for the upcoming PKL Season 6 due to his raiding prowess. A little polishing of his skills is still required as he is a raw talent.

Chrispine Otieno Oketch (All-rounder)

All-rounder Oketch is expected to contribute heavily to the defensive field. Fans expect him to put up a great game and dominate the defense as in his previous match against Pakistan, he did display some good defensive moves.

Isaac Njoroge Ikigu (Raider)

A young and a skillful raider, Ikigu Njoroge will have to play well in order to contribute to the team's victory. The unpolished player is expected to be in the starting seven of the team.

Esau Otieno (Defender)

A young defender who is making his presence felt, Esau Otieno will be an important part of the Kenyan defense. Positioned as a right cover, Otieno will look to a thorn in the side of the Indian raiders.

Victor Obiero (Defender)

Often touted as one of the men to look out for from the Kenyan team, all eyes will be on Victor Obiero when his team steps onto the mat. With his defensive skills, Kenyan fans will hope he keeps the Men in Blue in check.

James Obilo (Defender)

James Obilo is one of the more experienced Kenyan players and is known for the amazing show he put up in the Kabaddi World Cup. His contribution in the match will play a pivotal role when Kenya faces off against India.
