Who Will Win 2023-24 Pro Kabaddi League
After winning the inaugural edition of PKL in 2014, Jaipur Pink Panther finally won their second title last year, where they defeated Puneri Paltan in the final. These two sides were neck to neck throughout the group stage, with Jaipur finishing at the top of the table with an advantage of just two points. These two sides qualified automatically for the semi-finals. Bengaluru Bulls, meanwhile, were the third-best side but were a tad away from the mentioned two teams and after 13 wins in 22 games, they had to play the eliminator, where they beat Delhi Dabang comfortably. However, Bengaluru went on to suffer a defeat to eventual champions Jaipur in the semi-final.
Jaipur Pink Panthers Betting Tips and Predictions
The way Jaipur Pink Panthers dominated the previous season would make them the top contender to win the PKL trophy this year as well. They clinched 15 victories from 22 games, more wins than each of the other sides. The Jaipur side also tied just one game, which allowed them to finish at the top of the points table in the league stage and automatically qualify for the knockout rounds. Jaipur started the 2022 season with a close loss but went on to recover in no time and claimed quite a few big wins, boosting their morale for the remainder of the season. Moreover, the Jaipur Pink Panthers have the same players who played last season. They have retained their core team and did not acquire many players in the auction.

Bengaluru Bulls Betting Tips and Predictions
Bengaluru Bulls are one-time champions in the PKL, but they have been consistent over the last few years, finishing in the top three two times out of the last three campaigns. Bengaluru was also the best team after Jaipur Pink Panthers in 2022, with 14 wins, six losses and two tied results. In the eliminator, Bengaluru Bulls overcame Delhi Dabang with absolute ease but lost the semi-final meeting with eventual champions Jaipur Pink Panthers.

Patna Pirates Betting Tips and Predictions
Even though Patna Pirates had a forgettable season in 2022, they can be considered one of the favourites to win the title this year. They finished 10th in the league table last year, with just eight victories from 22 games, while they lost 11 matches and tied three. But, Patna Pirates have won the PKL title on more occasions than any other side – three seasons; in fact, their victories came in consecutive campaigns: 2016, 2016 and 2017. The Patna side finished runners up during the 2021-22 season, where they lost the final to first-time winners Delhi Dabang. Therefore, they’ll know best about the winning mantra and they have already started working towards it, starting with reshuffling their entire squad at the auction ahead of the new season.

Delhi Dabang Betting Tips and Predictions
Dabang, who have won the PKL title just once, have also been relatively consistent over the last few years. They finished second in the seventh season of the tournament before crossing the line successfully the following campaign in 2021-22. With 10 wins, 10 losses and two tied results, Delhi Dabang secured the final spot in the eliminators. With the team having strengthened their defense, apart from already posing talented raiders, Delhi Dabang would aim to challenge for the title. One of the positives in the Delhi side is that the side has a balance between experienced and young blood.

Players Achievements Odds
All players participating in Pro Kabaddi League 2023/24 season are available to bet on with dedicated odds provided by 10CRIC (bet on removing players, on reviving players etc.).
Pardeep Narwal (UP Yoddhas)
The most successful raider in the history of PKL, Pardeep Narwal, may not have delivered his record-breaking performances recently, but underestimating him will not be a great move. If Pardeep Narwal reaches his full form, he can significantly make a difference and help his team attain success in the upcoming season.
Arjun Deshwal (Jaipur Pink Panthers)
The Most Valuable Player (MVP) of last season – Arjun Deshwal was the best raider for champions Jaipur Pink Panthers. He had a wonderful season, where he bagged 296 raid points – the most by any player. Deshwal, who took the pressure off the other raiders in the team and led the attack from the front, showed total dominance in attack throughout the campaign. The prolific raider didn’t just lead the raid points scorers charts for Season 9 but he also registered the most Super 10s (17) last year. Deshwal carrying the same form into the 10th season will be vital for Jaipur’s chances to defend their title.
Sunil Kumar (Jaipur Pink Panthers)
The winning captain Sunil Kumar is one of the most experienced players in the PKL. He set out a rock solid defence for Jaipur Pink Panthers and finished as the season’s best cover defender with 64 tackle points.

Rising Stars
Himmat Antil (Delhi Dabang)
After having performed well in the domestic circuit, Himmat Antil was roped in by Delhi Dabang under the New Young Players category.
Abhijeet Malik (Jaipur Pink Panthers)
Abhijeet Malik, an outstanding young player, will be playing for the Jaipur Pink Panthers in the upcoming PKL season. Jaipur selected him during the auction, and he can serve as a backup raider.
Summary
Defending champions Jaipur Pink Panthers are gearing up to equal Patna Pirates’ record for most PKL wins (three titles) and it will be interesting to see if they can be stopped by a former champion or if PKL will finally get a new winner.
