The Tamil Thalaivas and the Telugu Titans face off in what should be a fiercely contested Southern Derby in PKL 11 on Wednesday, November 6, at the Gachibowli Indoor Stadium in Hyderabad.
Both these teams met in the third match of this season, with the Thalaivas registering a resounding 44-29 win over the Titans to begin their campaign. However, they come into this one on the back of a defeat to the Bengaluru Bulls, with their in-form raiders neutralized by a resurgent Bulls defense.
Meanwhile, the Titans' last outing saw them beat the same Bengaluru Bulls 38-35. That will give them some confidence heading into this match although they will have to do really well to get the better of the Thalaivas.

TAM vs TEL Dream11 Team Prediction Top Picks, Pro Kabaddi 2024, Match 38
Raider - Pawan Sehrawat
Pawan Sehrawat has been one of the best raiders in the tournament. Irrespective of how the Titans have performed, he has remained consistent throughout, scoring 65 raid points in six matches.
He's the undisputed lead raider for the Titans, and regardless of how this match goes, he's very likely to score a Super 10.
Defender - Sahil Gulia
Sahil Gulia is the heart of the Thalaivas' defense in that left corner position and in the absence of Sagar Rathee, is also filling in as the captain. With 21 tackle points in six matches, he's one of the top defenders in the league and the most selected on Dream11 for this match, and rightfully so.
All-Rounder - Nitesh Kumar
Nitesh Kumar has been one of the best players for the Thalaivas this season, scoring 18 tackle points in six matches and has been really good at executing ankle holds from the in-positions. His versatility means he's very capable of deputizing at other defensive positions.
At 13.5 credits, he's a much better Dream11 all-rounder choice than the alternatives.

TAM vs TEL Expert Tips for Pro Kabaddi 2024
The pricing of the three lead raiders makes this a hard game to set a Dream11 team for, and if you don't want to compromise on the quality of defenders you pick, one of Sachin, Narender, or Pawan Sehrawat has to be sacrificed.
Pawan's talismanic nature for this Telugu Titans' team means that he is hard to exclude from the team, and that leaves one of Sachin and Narender. In terms of the captaincy, Pawan, Sahil Gulia, and one of Sachin and Narender would be the best picks.
