PKL 12: U Mumba vs Bengaluru Bulls prediction, possible starting 7, head-to-head & free live stream

Bengaluru Bulls will look to get their first win of PKL 12 against U Mumba.

The 15th match of Pro Kabaddi League Season 12 (PKL 12) will see one of the earliest rivalries in the league’s history. Season 2 champions U Mumba will face Bengaluru Bulls. Both teams had legends like Anup Kumar, Ajay Thakur, and Manjeet Chillar during season two; now both sides are filled with young stars.

U Mumba have started the season with a bang, registering two wins and were very close to registering a third win, before Haryana Steelers stole the match in the tie-breaker.

On the other hand, the Bulls, with a new squad, have lost both their games. They have fought well and have a good team to succeed. Bengaluru would want to play well to register a win against an in-form U Mumba.

Players to watch out for

U Mumba – Rohit Raghav

The spotlight during U Mumba‘s matches are on the likes of Sunil Kumar or Ajit Chouhan. But Rohit Raghav has been one of the unsung heroes so far. The young all-rounder has made a big contribution to their defence by stopping the star raiders.

As a raider, he has slowed down the game, giving breathing space for lead raiders. It will be a player the Bulls should be wary of.

Bengaluru Bulls – Alireza Mirzaian

Alireza Mirzaian scored his first Super 10 of his PKL career in the last game. He will have a point to prove when he lines up against his previous franchise.

He was touted as the next raiding sensation, and the Iranian would want to prove it right with his performance. He will have a tough challenge against Sunil Kumar & Co.

Possible starting 7

U Mumba –  Lokesh Ghosaliya, Rohit Raghav, Parvesh Bhainswal, Ajit Chouhan, Sunil Kumar, Aanil Mohan, Rinku Sharma.

Bengaluru Bulls – Ankush Rathee, Alireza Mirzaian, Manish Dhull, Akash Shinde, Sanjay Dhull, Pankaj, Yogesh Dahiya.

Match Prediction

U Mumba are an all-round side with all the cylinders firing. Bulls have looked good in bits but need to strike as a team. They have improved in many things, but U Mumba are the favourites to win the match.
