BLR vs JAI Dream11 Prediction: 3 surprise picks for today's Pro Kabaddi 2024 match - November 12, 2024

The Bengaluru Bulls (BLR) and the Jaipur Pink Panthers (JAI) face off in the 49th match of Pro Kabaddi 2024 on Tuesday, November 12, at the Noida Indoor Stadium.

It's a must-win game for the Bulls, who have lost six out of their opening eight matches, and enter this match on the back of a 29-40 defeat at the hands of the Bengal Warriorz.

Meanwhile, the Jaipur Pink Panthers lost their last fixture, a close encounter against the Patna Pirates that finished 41-43 against Jaipur. One positive from that match was a return to form for Arjun Deshwal, who scored a Super 10.

With this match a must-win for both teams, it'll be interesting to see who comes out on top. Let's now look at the top three Dream11 surprise picks for this one.


#3 Arulnanthababu (DEF) (BLR)

Bengaluru Bulls' defender Arulnanthababu could be a very handy Dream11 surprise pick for this match. Capable of playing in multiple positions across the defensive line, Arulnanthababu scored seven tackle points across his last two starts against the Telugu Titans and the Bengal Warriorz.

He has been a solid under-the-radar performer for a team struggling for consistency in defense. His Dream11 ownership is fairly low, making him a differential who could have a massive impact on this match. He's sure to start this match and could continue to pick up consistent Dream11-point hauls in this match as well.


#2 Akshit Dhull (ALL) (BLR)

Young left raider Akshit Dhull was one of the lone bright sparks for the Bengaluru Bulls in their comprehensive defeat against the Bengal Warriorz.

After a slow start in the first half, he came into his own in the second, and led the Bulls' brief charge for a comeback. While that eventually fizzled out, Akshit finished the match with 11 raid points, a rare Super 10 for the Bulls season.

With unconfirmed reports circulating on Pardeep Narwal potentially picking up a long-term injury, Akshit is very likely to be one of the lead raiders for the Bulls in this match. Against the weaker side of the Jaipur defense, he could score plenty of Dream11 points even if his team doesn't have a good game.


#1 Lucky Sharma (DEF) (JAI)

After back-to-back blanks in a row, Arpit Saroha's stint as a starting right corner for the Jaipur Pink Panthers might come to an end ahead of their meeting with the Bulls.

Lucky Sharma, who started the season as their first-choice right corner is expected to return to the starting 7, and could instantly be a really powerful Dream11 differential. Barring Jai Bhagwan and Pankaj, almost every other Bulls' raider is a left raider, tailoring an ideal situation for the right corners to initiate tackles to bring them down.

While Lucky hasn't been in the best of form this season, he definitely has every opportunity to pick up a mega-haul against a struggling Bulls' raiding unit. That makes Lucky, or if he retains his place in the starting 7, Arpit, strong Dream11 surprise picks.
