The Bengal Warriors and the Jaipur Pink Panthers square off in Thursday, December 7, PKL 10’s tenth game in Ahmedabad’s The Arena by TransStadia.
If you were to guess which team won their first game against the other, you would probably be wrong because the Warriors ended 10th and Jaipur is the reigning champion.
Though they came within a hair’s breadth of victory in the end, the Warriors defeated the Bengaluru Bulls 32–30 despite being the underdogs in their matchup.
Maninder Singh, who excelled in raiding, took home a Super 10 for their young defense, which was captained by Shubham Shinde in the right corner.
The runners-up from the previous season, Puneri Paltan, gave Jaipur a difficult opening matchup and exacted retribution, defeating Sunil Kumar’s team 37-33. Arjun Deshwal had a solid performance, totaling 17 raid points (10 bonus points included), while the raiding department as a whole remained silent.
Their corner combination of Ankush and Sahul Kumar was limited to just one point overall, thus their defense was the biggest problem, and that’s what they should focus on.

Pro Kabaddi 2023: BEN vs. JAI Dream11 Team Prediction Top Picks, Match 10
Arjun Deshwal, Raider
Though it’s a tight contest between Arjun Deshwal and Maninder Singh, the player who plays for the superior squad prevails.
In case you were unaware, a player’s team can earn Dream11 points by forcing their opponent to go all-out, but they can lose points by going all-out themselves. Jaipur is more likely to cause all-outs than to fall prey to one.
Defender: Shubham Shinde
The most improved defender going into this matchup is Shubham Shinde. He played so well against the Bengaluru Bulls that it will be difficult to choose someone else for this one. Aditya Shinde, his companion in the left corner, is also a great choice at 12.5 credits.
All-Rounder- Sunil Kumar
Surprisingly, Sunil Kumar has been called an all-rounder; this is a good thing. Although there aren’t many options for all-rounders in this match, Vishwas S is still a good alternative. But Sunil is a very good, reliable defender who is well worth the investment.
Captain/Vice-Captain Selections for the BEN vs. JAI Match:
Maninder Singh

Ankush
Five Star Picks:
Maninder Singh, Arjun Deshwal, Shubham Shinde, Sunil Kumar, and Ankush for BEN vs. JAI, Pro Kabaddi 2023, Match 10.
Expert Advice on BEN vs. JAI for Pro Kabaddi 2023
Picking Ankush shouldn’t be discouraged merely because of his lackluster performance against the Puneri Paltan. Not every team can pull off an operation like that, but theirs was a well-thought-out scheme against him.
Despite his high cost, he is a very likely return on investment—he was the top defender in the previous campaign.
Bengali Aditya Shinde is a stealthy treasure worth keeping an eye on. Despite his ability to make mistakes, he strikes me as a very active defender who always seems to be scooping up tackle points. Selecting Arjun or Maninder for captaincy is an obvious choice.
