As the Pro Kabaddi League Season 12<\/a> continues to serve fans with action-packed encounters, Match 28 brings an exciting clash between Dabang Delhi KC<\/strong><\/a> and Gujarat Giants<\/a><\/strong>. The match will be played on 11th September 2025<\/strong> in Visakhapatnam<\/strong>, which also marks the end of this leg of the tournament. From here, the league moves to Jaipur’s iconic Sawai Mansingh Stadium<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While Dabang Delhi<\/strong> will be looking to continue their unbeaten run and end this phase on a high, Gujarat Giants<\/strong> will be desperate to bounce back and get their campaign back on track. Let\u2019s take a look at how both teams are shaping up ahead of this crucial encounter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Current Form of Both Teams<\/strong> <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dabang Delhi have been one of the most consistent sides this season. They\u2019ve played four matches so far and have won all of them, placing them comfortably at second place<\/strong> in the points table<\/a>. Their all-round performance \u2013 both in attack and defence \u2013 has stood out, especially their composure in pressure moments, like Golden Raids<\/strong>, where they\u2019ve held their nerve beautifully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gujarat Giants, on the other hand, are struggling to find rhythm. With just one win in four matches<\/strong>, they find themselves languishing at 11th position<\/strong> on the table. Inconsistency in both their starting lineup and execution on the mat has hurt them, and they\u2019ll be hoping to reset things with a big win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Head-to-Head: A Close Contest Over the Years<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to head-to-head records, there isn\u2019t much separating the two teams. Out of 16 matches played<\/strong>, Delhi has won 7<\/strong>, Gujarat has 6 victories<\/strong>, and 3 games have ended in a tie<\/strong>. This clearly shows that matches between these two sides are usually neck-and-neck, and fans can expect another thrilling battle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key Players to Watch Out For<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Ashu Malik (Dabang Delhi)<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Leading from the front, Ashu Malik<\/strong> has been the standout star for Delhi this season. He has scored 61 points in just 4 matches<\/strong>, emerging as a consistent performer in the raiding department. Not only is he carrying the responsibility of being captain, but he is also delivering in crunch moments. His duel against Gujarat\u2019s defensive wall, particularly their captain, will be one to watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mohammadreza Shadloui (Gujarat Giants)<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Things haven\u2019t gone well so far for the Iranian powerhouse. Mohammadreza Shadloui<\/strong>, who is also captaining Gujarat, has managed only 5 tackle points in 4 matches<\/strong>, which is quite low considering his potential. This match could be the turning point for him \u2013 if he can find his rhythm, it could lift the entire team. Gujarat will be banking on him to bring his A-game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
