In a rematch of Pro Kabaddi League season nine's final match, Puneri Paltan (PUN) will take on Jaipur Pink Panthers (JAI) tonight (November 25) at the Noida Indoor Stadium. It is the 75th match of PKL 11, and this game is a part of the tournament's Revenge Week as well.
Puneri Paltan and Jaipur Pink Panthers squared off last week in Noida, where the Pink Panthers prevailed by 30-28. The two teams will battle once again at the same venue, with Pune seeking revenge.
Talking about the previous meeting between the two teams, Akash Shinde scored seven points for Puneri Paltan, but his efforts ended in a losing cause because of a High 5 from Jaipur Pink Panthers' left corner defender Ankush Rathee. Ankush troubled the Pune raiders by scoring six tackle points.

The focus will be on Ankush and Akash when tonight's match begins in Noida. Before the Dream11 teams are locked in for this contest, here's a glance at three players whom fantasy users can select as captain or vice-captain of their teams.
#1 Arjun Deshwal, Jaipur Pink Panthers
Jaipur Pink Panthers captain Arjun Deshwal has been the most consistent performer for his team in Pro Kabaddi League's last two seasons. Deshwal has always been in the race for the Best Raider award. This season, he stands third on the overall leaderboard right now, having earned 131 raid points so far.
While Deshwal could not score a Super 10 when Jaipur Pink Panthers battled Puneri Paltan last week, he still top-scored for his franchise by scoring eight points in the match. The Pune defense tackled him five times, but Arjun still ended up with five touch points and three bonus points. Expect Arjun to score more points against Pune tonight.
#2 Ankush Rathee, Jaipur Pink Panthers
As mentioned earlier, left corner defender Ankush Rathee was the game-changer for Jaipur Pink Panthers in their previous victory over Puneri Paltan. Ankush earned six tackle points in the game, emerging as the most successful defender across two teams.
Although Ankush has not been that consistent in Pro Kabaddi League 2024, his impressive performance in the last match against Pune makes him a top choice for captaincy or vice-captaincy in fantasy contests. Pune's raid lineup will be more or less the same which played the last time against Jaipur, and Ankush will be keen to stop them again.
#3 Akash Shinde, Puneri Paltan
Ever since Aslam Inamdar got injured, Akash Shinde has stepped up and delivered the goods for Puneri Paltan in the raiding department. He was the top-scorer for Pune when they took on the Jaipur Pink Panthers in Pro Kabaddi League 2024 last week.
Besides, Akash also stole the show last night in Noida, when he scored nine points, helping Pune register a massive win against the Bengal Warriorz. Akash has been in top form, and the coach sends him to raid frequently as well. Thus, he will be a safe choice for captain or vice-captain in Dream11 contests for tonight's Pro Kabaddi League 2024 fixture.
