Pawan Sehrawat has been the captain as well as a standout raider for Telugu Titans. He has the joint-most Super 10s (6) to his name. He has bagged 86 raid points from 66 successful raids, including two Super raids, and ranks among the top 10 raiders with a 9.55 average.

Given his raiding prowess, the “Hi-Flyer” will be a safe choice for the captain/vice-captain of your TEL vs BEN Dream11 teams.

Shubham Shinde finds himself among the top five defenders of PKL10. With 32 tackle points from 31 successful tackles, he has been the most successful defender of the Warriors this season. He underperformed in the last two games but will seek to bounce back in the upcoming one and prove to be lethal.

Shinde’s 3.2 average tackle success/match with a 53% success rate, makes him a reliable choice for the captain/vice-captain in your TEL vs BEN Dream11 teams.
