IPL 2018: 5 pacers who can replace Mohammed Shami in Delhi Daredevils

#4 Ashok Dinda

Dinda has been playing IPL since its inception but remained unsold this year

Bengal pacer Ashok Dinda went almost unsold in the IPL 2016 auctions before Pune bought him in the final round. The bowler, who didn’t have form by his side at that time, delivered a superb spell of 3 for 23 that destroyed the Sunrisers’ batting and took Pune to 34-run win. He may not be a consistent bowler, but every once in a while he can spring up a surprise and destroy the opposition.

He ended the 2016 season with 11 wickets from nine games, and in the 2017 edition, he picked up a solitary wicket from three games because he was benched for most of the season. His experience of playing IPL for the past ten years can come crucial to any franchise. He remained unsold in the 2018 auctions, with a base price of Rs. 50 lakhs.
