PKL 11: Dabang Delhi Beats U Mumba and await UP Yoddhas in the next match
Dabang Delhi began their Pro Kabaddi League campaign with an excellent start as they defeated U Mumba 36-28, led by the brilliance of Ashu Malik and his Super 10. Malik continues to shine as the top raider throughout this season and has taken the form forward from last season, when he was the top raider in the league.
Meanwhile, UP Yoddhas are all set to begin their first season match against Dabang Delhi, without the contribution of the legend Pardeep Narwal. The raiding attack has Surinder Gill and Bharat Hooda spearheading it for the Yoddhas, and fans will be apt to be fretting on this on-field chemistry.

Players to Watch Out
Bharat Hooda (UP Yoddhas):
He was spotted by Bengaluru Bulls head coach Randheer Singh Sehrawat, and the rest is history. As a rookie, Hooda was destined to be the top scorer for the Bulls in his first proper season. The Haryanavi youth is now poised to take over the mantle of leaving a big difference like Pardeep Narwal did for Yoddhas, crucial for PKL 11.
Naveen Kumar Dabang Delhi:
Naveen Kumar has had a relatively slow start to this campaign but remains among the most prolific raiders in PKL history. At more than 800 raid points from less than a hundred games, Kumar is an untouchable force. He has already led Dabang Delhi to a PKL title and runner-up finish. Paired with Ashu Malik, his leadership will go a long way toward helping Delhi succeed in the tournament.
