The 108th Pro Kabaddi League 2024 match will be between UP Yoddhas and Bengal Warriorz on Thursday, December 12. It is a crucial match in the race for the playoffs.
The Yoddhas are fourth in the Pro Kabaddi League 2024 points table. If they defeat the Bengal Warriorz, they can jump to the second spot and inch a step closer to the next round.
On the other hand, the Warriorz are in a do-or-die situation. They hold the 10th position in the standings, having registered five wins in 17 matches. If they win their remaining five matches, they still have an outside chance of finishing in the top six.
Before the UP Yoddhas vs Bengal Warriorz match starts in Pro Kabaddi League 2024, here's a look at the three players Dream11 users can select as captain or vice-captain of their fantasy teams.
#1 Fazel Atrachali - Bengal Warriorz
Bengal Warriorz captain Fazel Atrachali roared back to form with a spectacular performance against the Bengaluru Bulls on Tuesday, December 10. Fazel scored seven tackle points in the left corner position.
The Iranian star tried for nine tackles in the match, with only two being unsuccessful. He would have gained a lot of confidence from that performance against the Bengaluru Bulls.
UP Yoddhas' raiders have been quite impressive as a unit, but they will find it challenging to score points against Fazel Atrachali in the left corner. Looking at his performance against the Bengaluru Bulls, Fazel will be the best option for captaincy or vice-captaincy in the Dream11 contests.
#2 Gagan Gowda - UP Yoddhas
Young raider Gagan Gowda played a match-winning role for the UP Yoddhas in their previous Pro Kabaddi League fixture against Puneri Paltan on December 7. The Yoddhas raider top-scored in that game by earning 15 points, including five bonus points.
Gowda had 17 raid opportunities and executed nine successful raids. His confidence will be on another level when he enters the mat against the Bengal Warriorz.
Considering that the UP Yoddhas picked Gowda in their starting seven for the last match, he is likely to be on the mat for the entire match, making him a reliable option for captaincy or vice-captaincy in fantasy contests.
#3 Sumit Sangwan - UP Yoddhas
UP Yoddhas skipper Sumit Sangwan was the best defender for his team when they battled against the Bengal Warriorz for the first time in Pro Kabaddi League during the Hyderabad leg. Sumit earned three tackle points in that match.
Overall, Sumit has consistently delivered the goods for UP Yoddhas in the left corner position. He owns the sixth spot in the Most Tackle Points list, having earned 53 tackle points from 17 matches.
Since Sumit averages more than three tackle points per match in PKL 11, he is a worthy option for captaincy or vice-captaincy in the Dream11 contests. Also, Sumit had a decent 50% tackle success rate during the previous UP Yoddhas vs Bengal Warriorz game.
