MUM vs BEN Dream11 prediction: Today's match predicted playing 7s for U Mumba vs Bengal Warriorz Pro Kabaddi 2024, Match 17
U Mumba and the Bengal Warriors go up against each other in the first match of a PKL 11 double-header on Saturday, October 26. The Gachibowli Indoor Stadium in Hyderabad will host the game.
Both teams registered their first win of the season in their respective last outings after suffering defeats in their opening encounters.
U Mumba overcame a stern test from the Gujarat Giants to emerge victorious with a 33-27 scoreline, with Amirmohammad Zafardanesh leading the charge, scoring eight raid points and two tackle points. The rest of the defense joined the party, with left-corner Sombir scoring four tackle points and captain Sunil Kumar scoring three.
Meanwhile, the Bengal Warriorz bounced back from a close defeat to the Jaipur Pink Panthers, holding their nerve to seal a 32-29 win over the UP Yoddhas, with the energetic third raider Sushil Kambrekar scoring some handy points in both raid and defense and providing a much-needed foil for Maninder and Nitin Kumar.
Despite an off-day for right corner Nitesh Kumar, the rest of the defense played much better, much to captain Fazel Atrachali's delight.

MUM vs BEN Dream11 Team Prediction Top Picks, Pro Kabaddi 2024, Match 17
Raider - Nitin Kumar
Nitin Kumar Dhankhar had an impressive debut season in PKL 10, and in his second season, he looks set to take the league by storm. He has 20 raid points in two matches so far, and he has put in a very high volume of raids, indicating that he is somewhat the team's lead raider despite the presence of Maninder Singh.
He has been used a lot by the team in do-or-die raid situations as well, and while that may result in a few unsuccessful raids, it gives him an extra opportunity to score raid points and add to his Dream11 tally.
Defender - Fazel Atrachali
Fazel Atrachali in the Bengal Warriorz left corner might be the safest Dream11 defender pick for this match. Fazel is the highest point-scoring defender in PKL history, and his defensive prowess hasn't gone down one bit. He hardly gets the tackle wrong, very rarely spends any time on the bench, and is a reliable and consistent Dream11 option.
All-Rounder - Amirmohammad Zafardanesh
Zafardanesh has been U Mumba's best player so far, and he seems set to lead their raiding unit, with Manjeet likely to be inconsistent with his performances. While Sombir at 12.5 credits, is also a neat Dream11 pick, Zafardanesh is clearly the best Dream11 all-rounder on show and is a potential captaincy pick.

MUM vs BEN Expert Tips for Pro Kabaddi 2024
This should be a riveting contest between two top teams and the Dream11 selection should reflect the balance in the strength of both sides. Fazel Atrachali, Amirmohammad Zafardanesh, and Nitin Kumar are must-haves and the best Dream11 captaincy picks, with Maninder Singh also a solid pick.
The other players aren't the most consistent in terms of point-scoring, but Sunil Kumar, Sombir, Ajit Chavan, and even Mayur Kadam offer good value. Keeping a 4-3 ratio between picks from both teams should be the way to go for this one as it should be a very close game.
