UP vs BEN Dream11 prediction: 3 players you can pick as captain or vice-captain for today’s Pro Kabaddi League Match – January 13, 2024

The fourth match of the Jaipur leg of the Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) 2023 will see UP Yoddhas (UP) take on Bengal Warriors (BEN) at SMS Indoor Stadium on Saturday at 9 pm IST.

UP Yoddhas are having a disappointing run in the PKL 10, having lost eight out of 12 games. Tamil Thalaivas beat them in the previous game 46-27. Vijay Malik was the lone ranger with a Super 10 while star raiders Pardeep Narwal and Surender Gill underperformed.

Meanwhile, Bengal Warriors secured their fourth win over Telugu Titans 46-26. With 28 points in 11 games, they stand above the Yoddhas aiming for their second straight win. Maninder Singh, who was benched in the last game, is likely to return to the playing seven.

On that note, here are the three players you could pick as the captain/vice-captain for the upcoming UP vs BEN Dream11 match.

Maninder Singh missed his recent game against Telugu Titans. However, he has been the strike raider for Bengal Warriors in the previous games. He has claimed 97 raid points from 77 successful raids, including four Super raids.

With five Super 10s and a 51% success rate, the “Mighty-Maninder” will be a powerhouse raider in the upcoming UP vs BEN Dream11 match.

Sumit Sangwan, the left-corner, is currently the star defender of UP Yoddhas. He has mustered 40 tackle points from 34 successful tackles, including six Super tackles, the second-most this season. He has also achieved four High 5s in 12 games at a fine average of 3.33 and an impressive 52% tackle success rate.

Given his defensive records, making Sumit the captain/vice-captain of your UP vs BEN Dream11 team would be a wise move.
