BLR vs BEN Dream11 prediction: Today's match predicted playing 7s for Bengaluru Bulls vs Bengal Warriorz Pro Kabaddi 2024, Match 44
The Bengaluru Bulls (BLR) go up against the Bengal Warriorz (BEN) in the final match of the Hyderabad leg of Pro Kabaddi 2024 on Saturday, November 9, at the Gachibowli Indoor Stadium in Hyderabad.
The Bulls overturned a poor run of games with a morale-boosting 36-32 win over the Tamil Thalaivas. Surinder Singh led the way with a High 5 as they produced a robust defensive performance, stifling the dangerous Thalaivas' raiders, and they'll have to produce a similar performance if they want to stop the Warriorz.
The Bengal Warriorz, meanwhile, would be mighty disappointed to not register a comeback win in their last outing against Dabang Delhi KC. Despite Nitin Kumar and Fazel Atrachali in great form, Bengal went behind early and never got the lead back again, losing 30-33 in the end, despite a Super 10 and a High 5 from Nitin and Fazel, respectively.

BLR vs BEN Dream11 Team Prediction Top Picks, Pro Kabaddi 2024, Match 44
Raider - Nitin Kumar
Nitin Kumar returned to form superbly with a Super 10 against Dabang Delhi KC, scoring 15 raid points, albeit in a losing cause. He entered the top 10 raiders of PKL 11 with that performance, aggregating 47 raid points in six matches.
He'll be the key to unlocking that Bulls' defense, although Maninder Singh could be just as dangerous a Dream11 option if he starts well.
Defender - Surinder Singh
Surinder Singh's inspiring performance on his return to the Bulls' starting XI powered their win over the Thalaivas, scoring a High 5. Against the right raiders of the Warriorz, his instinctive tackling will be crucial for stopping them. There's a good chance he carries on his good form into this match.
All-Rounder - Nitin Rawal
Nitin Rawal, the Bulls' left corner defender, has been playing on a different level to the rest of the team. He's the second-best defender in PKL 11, scoring 26 tackle points in seven matches. Similar to Surinder, his tackling in the left corner against Bengal's all-right raiding unit will be crucial to their chances.
He's a solid Dream11 captaincy option as well.

BLR vs BEN Expert Tips for Pro Kabaddi 2024
The Warriorz will be the favorites coming into this match despite their defeat and the Bulls' win in their respective previous outings. Their raiding unit is miles better than the Bulls' if they're in full flow, and it'll take another solid defensive performance from Nitin Rawal and Co. if they are to stand a chance in this match.
Nitin Rawal and Nitin Kumar are two of the best Dream11 captaincy picks, with Fazel also joining that list. Nitesh Kumar has also done well in the last couple of matches, and with Pardeep likely to return to the fold, he will have plenty of left raiders to deal with and initiate tackles on. He could be a left-field captaincy option.
