Ashok Dinda: Delhi to Pune The Bengal pacer, the second highest wicket-taker this Ranji Trophy season, was bought by Daredevils last year for $375,000. But with South Africa's Morne Morkel and the Indian trio of Umesh Yadav, Ajit Agarkar and Varun Aaron already in their ranks, selling Dinda to Pune was hardly a tough decision for the Daredvils. Dinda will now team up with Pune's Ashish Nehra, who missed the last season with injury.
