Today's Khel Kabaddi code is 9845
Here are our suggested picks for today’s game:
Rohit Kumar
After a record breaking performance last night against U.P. Yoddha, you can’t afford to keep the raiding maestro Rohit Kumar out of your Khel Kabaddi fantasy team. Rohit is just 3 raid points behind the 2nd leading raid point scorer of PKL with 210 raid points to his name. He has already scored 12 Super 10s in PKL 5, which is double to his tally in PKL 2 and 3 combined.
He has been in sublime form recently scoring 83 raid points in last 5 games at an average of 16.6 raid points per game. After scoring 5 back-to-back Super 10s, Rohit will aim for his 6th consecutive Super 10 tonight. He will look to finish the season on a high against the poor performing defence of Patna Pirates.
Pardeep Narwla
If Patna Pirates are playing, Pardeep Narwal has to be the first-choice player for your Khel Kabaddi team. Pardeep is the leading raid point scorer of PKL 5 with 267 raid points to his name at an average of 12.71 raid points per game. Pardeep has scored 15 Super 10s in PKL 5, no player has more.
He has been in brilliant form trough out PKL 5 and has been the most consistent performers of this season. Pardeep has scored 2 match winning Super 10s against Bengaluru Bulls in previous 2 encounters and will definitely look for a similar performance tonight.
Nitin Rawal
The young Nitin Rawal is listed as a defender in Khel Kabaddi game, but playing as a true all-rounder for Jaipur Pink Panthers. Despite presence of big players like Manjeet and Jasvir, Nitin is the 2nd leading raid point and point scorer of Jaipur Pink Panthers with 63 raid points and 83 total points respectively.
He has been scoring 5 or more points in each of his last 4 games including a Super 10. Being a designated defender, Nitin Rawal has scored 2 Super 10s this season. Nitin was the leading point scorer of Jaipur in their previous encounter against Puneri Paltan with 7 points and will aim for similar performance tonight.
Other players to watch out for
Girish Ernak – Girish Ernak is the leading tackle point scorer of Puneri Paltan with 54 tackle points to his name. He has scored 5 or more points in 3 out of his last 5 games including 2 High 5s. He has scored a High 5 in their previous encounter against Jaipur. Nitin Rawal’s raiding prowess forced us to keep him out of the top 3 picks. You can undoubtedly substitute him with Nitin, if he features in your Khel Kabaddi team.
