PKL 12: Bengal Warriorz vs Haryana Steelers prediction, possible starting 7, head-to-head & free live stream

Haryana Steelers will begin their title defense against Bengal Warriorz.

The second match of the first Sunday of the Pro Kabaddi League Season 12 (PKL 12) will be a blockbuster, as defending champions Haryana Steelers will take on Bengal Warriorz.

Both teams were in the headlines during the retention window and in the auction. Haryana released their last season star Mohammadreza Shadloui.

Bengal made Devank Dalal the most expensive player in Season 12. Bengal, with a revamped squad, will look to start afresh, while the inclusion of Naveen Kumar has given some strength to Haryana’s title defence.

Players to watch out for

Bengal Warriorz

Devank Dalal will be the man in focus for the Bengal Warriorz. The tall Raider has not only been trusted with a huge price tag but also has been given the responsibility of captaincy.

If he could crack both the codes, then Bengal could become a dominating team in the season. All eyes will be on Devank on Sunday night.

Haryana Steelers

Naveen Kumar has moved from Delhi to Haryana, and it wasn’t a big surprise as injuries in the last few seasons have kept him out of the game.

The 25-year-old has worked hard to regain full fitness and will be looking to give his best in Season 12. With an extra motivation of representing his birth state, Naveen would be eager to give his best.

Possible starting 7

Bengal Warriorz – Devank Dalal, Vishwas S, Sushil Kambrekar, Nitesh Kumar, Mayur Kadam, Prateek Gulia, Ashish Malik.

Haryana Steelers –  Naveen Kumar, Vinay, Shivam Patare, Rahul Sethpal, Rahul Ahri, N Manikandan, Jaideep Dahiya.

Match Prediction

Haryana Steelers will start as favourites. The defending champions have retained their core from the last season. Along with Naveen, they can wreak havoc against the Warriorz, who will try to find the right combination with their new team.
