This is turning out to be a season Puneri Paltan will be ardently wishing comes to a culmination at the earliest. With just four wins to their name, the side find themselves languishing in the trenches of the league standings with absolutely nothing going their way in the seventh season of Pro Kabaddi League.
The side will however be looking to build on the momentum garnered from their previous outing in the league, a match which saw them salvage a point against U Mumba. Partaking in the revered Maharashtra derby, the side ended up sparing no expense in picking up something from the match, ensuring that an edge of the seat thriller ended in both the side’s ending on equal points.

In Bengal Warriors, the side are up against an outfit which is getting exposed and exposed fast, falling in the points tally at a hefty speed.
They ended up drawing yesterday to Gujarat Fortunegiants, continuing a downward spiral which Puneri Paltan will be looking to make the most of come today.

Dream 11 Picks
Defenders
With 36 tackle points in 12 matches, we had to opt for the services of Baldev Singh. He’s been a solid performer across his stay in the league and with Puneri Paltan vulnerable to putting up inconsistent displays at times, he could end up registering some good points for us today.
From Puneri Paltan although we wanted their leading defender Surjeet Singh for this one, we were unable to work him with his price tag, seeing us opt for the consistent and in form Jadhav Balasaheb Shahaji instead. He’s been a dependable player for the side recently, dashing and lunging at raiders at just the right moment and with adequate force to pick up tackle points for his side.
All-Rounders
Puneri Paltan’s highest raiding points accumulator and undoubtedly their most valuable player as well, all-rounder Manjeet was the first name we had on our minds when we were building out this segment of our side. While he has 62 raiding points, he registered four tackles in the previous match as well, the highest of any player to showcase the overall nature of his game.
From the opposition we are choosing Mohammad Esmaeil-Nabibaksh, someone who is challenging Manjeet and pushing him all the way for the title of best all-rounder in game and is the fulcrum of the Bengal Warriors’ side.
Raiders
With 52 raid points from just 10 matches, Pankaj Mohite has been tremendous for his side, picking up raid points for Puneri Paltan effortlessly. He will need to take the accountably of a strong showing yet again and we envision him living upto the standards he has built for himself.
Elsewhere from the other side we have gotten in their leading raider and overall fourth highest scoring raider with a stunning 104 points in his artillery, Maninder Singh for this match.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Manjeet has been selected as our side’s captain for today while Maninder is stuck with as the vice-captain pick.
