Today's Khel Kabaddi code is 8590.
Here are our suggested picks for today’s game:
Rohit Kumar
When Bengaluru Bulls are playing, you can’t afford to not have the raiding maestro Rohit Kumar on your Khel Kabaddi team. Rohit is their leading raid point scorer with 139 raid points to his name. He has already scored 8 Super 10s this season - only Pardeep has scored more.
He has been in good form in the last few games, scoring 57 points in the last seven matches at an average of 8.1, including 3 Super 10s. He has already scored two Super 10s against Tamil Thalaivas in their last two encounters and will definitely look to take advantage of their weak defence tonight.
Ajay Thakur
Considering his current form, Ajay should be the first choice for your Khel Kabaddi team. Ajay is the leading raid point scorer for Tamil Thalaivas and 4th highest raid point scorer of PKL 5 with 141 raid points to his name. Ajay has also been in sublime form recently, scoring 80 raid points in his last 7 matches with the help of 4 Super 10s.
Ajay has already scored back-to-back Super 10s in the last two games, however, he is yet to score a Super 10 against Bengaluru Bulls and will surely aim for one tonight.
Amit Hooda
Amit Hooda is the leading tackle point scorer for Tamil Thalaivas with 51 tackle points to his name. He has been one of the top performing defenders of PKL 5. He has lost his form completely in the last few games though and will be eager to deliver his best while playing the last home game of this season.
He missed out on a High 5 by just 1 point in his side's previous meeting with Bengaluru Bulls and scored 3 tackle points in the first encounter.
Other players to watch out for
Kuldeep Singh – The young left-corner Kuldeep is the 3rd leading tackle point scorer for Bengaluru Bulls and might be a surprise pick here. But he has scored 3 High 5s this season, which is the most by any Bengaluru defender in PKL 5. Considering Tamil Thalaivas' line of attack, Kuldeep is expected to get quite a few chances to complete his 4th High 5 tonight. You can substitute him with Amit if he features in your card collection.
