It was just another day at the office for Rising Pune Supergiant pacer Ashoke Dinda, as the Bengal seamer was decimated in Pune against the Delhi Daredevils.
Batting first on a belter of a wicket, the Daredevils amassed a colossal 205 on board, thanks to a fluent century from Sanju Samson.
Dinda was taken to the cleaners right from the beginning, as the Kerala batsman took a special liking to the Supergiant pacer. In the death overs as well, things were the same for Dinda as his offerings were gleefully accepted by the Delhi middle order.
Dinda however, wasn’t the lone Pune bowler to bear the brunt, as their English recruit Ben Stokes had to endure a similar fate as well. Stokes was hammered for 23 runs off the final over by Chris Morris which included two colossal sixes.
Dinda and Stokes were trolled brutally on Twitter, and below are some of the tweets.
The only thing that jumps higher than Ashoke Dinda is Dinda's economy rate.

The way Dinda jumps while bowling… No doubt soon there will be question regarding him to calculate his jump's height in JEE exam.
