MUM vs JAI Dream11 prediction: 3 players you can pick as captain or vice-captain for today’s Pro Kabaddi League Match – October 31, 2024

U Mumba will face Jaipur Pink Panthers in the 28th match of Pro Kabaddi League 2024 on Wednesday, October 31. This is the oldest rivalry of PKL as U Mumba took on Jaipur Pink Panthers in the inaugural match of the league as well as the final of the first season.

Jaipur Pink Panthers defeated U Mumba in the inaugural edition's final to become the first-ever Pro Kabaddi League champions. The Pink Panthers will be keen to record another win over the Mumbai-based franchise when they meet at the GMCB Indoor Stadium in Hyderabad.

Interestingly, Jaipur's season 10 captain Sunil Kumar has now joined U Mumba, while former U Mumba raider Arjun Deshwal is now the skipper of the Jaipur Pink Panthers. Since both Sunil and Arjun have played so many matches together, they must have a good idea about each other's playing style.

It should be another cracker of a contest in Pro Kabaddi League 2024. Before the first raid of this game, here's a look at the three players Dream11 users can pick as captain or vice-captain for their fantasy teams in tonight's contests.


#1 Arjun Deshwal, Jaipur Pink Panthers

Whenever Jaipur Pink Panthers are playing, captain Arjun Deshwal is an automatic pick in the fantasy teams. Deshwal is the top points scorer for the Pink Panthers this season, having earned 44 raid points from four matches. Overall, he stands fourth on the list of raiders with the most points in PKL 11.

Although Deshwal has not been at his absolute best this season so far, he still averages 11 raid points per match. When he gets back to his top form, he will be unstoppable. Looking at his average in PKL 11, Deshwal is the best choice for captaincy or vice-captaincy in fantasy contests tonight.


#2 Amirmohammad Zafardanesh, U Mumba

Amirmohammad Zafardanesh has been the MVP for U Mumba this season so far. He has earned 17 raid points in three matches. Besides, the Iranian all-rounder has also contributed his bit in the defense by chipping in with valuable tackle points.

Zafardanesh knows how to bring his 'A' game to the table when it matters the most. With U Mumba set to battle their arch-rivals in Pro Kabaddi League 2024 tonight, it should not be a surprise if Zafardanesh steps up and delivers the goods for the Mumbai-based franchise.


#3 Ankush Rathee, Jaipur Pink Panthers

Jaipur Pink Panthers' left-corner defender Ankush Rathee has been the most successful among both teams in PKL 11 so far. Rathee stands 15th on the overall defenders' leaderboard, with 10 tackle points in four matches.

Although an average of 2.5 tackle points per match may not motivate Dream11 users to keep Rathee as captain or vice-captain in fantasy contests tonight, the left-corner defender has done brilliantly in PKL before. It is just a matter of time before Rathee regains his golden touch.

A High 5 is just around the corner for the Jaipur defender, and tonight could be that night. Rathee can be the 'X-factor' for Jaipur against U Mumba.
