Ashoke Dinda took to Twitter on Sunday to drive home his point
Ashoke Dinda continued to berate trolls on social media, saying his angry outburst against the "haters" came about due to the abuse aimed at his family and use of "filthy languages for my daughter and wife". The right-arm pacer has been subjected to trolls using his name to highlight a poor showing by a bowler in the ongoing IPL 2019. After posting his domestic stats on Instagram to shut down the trolls, Ashoke Dinda took to Twitter on Sunday to slam Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) for being "irresponsible".
I personally have no hard feelings for anyone and have always had a fondness for the team for legends like@imVkohli@ABdeVilliers17@henrygayle and also since I had once called it home. You are surely answerable @RCBTweetspic.twitter.com/qGKEIAhhIT

Dinda has had a long and fruitful career with his most impressive performances coming in the domestic circuit, especially the Ranji Trophy while playing for Bengal.
The right-arm pacer has also played nearly 80 matches in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and boasts a decent return.
However, his last outing in the T20 tournament wasn't the best and that has seems to have left a lasting impression on many fans. So much so that whenever a bowler has leaked runs in IPL 2019, he has been compared to the Bengal pacer with the term "Dinda Academy" cropping up many a times.
Inexplicably, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) too made a mention of "Dinda Academy" after Umesh Yadav took three wickets against Kings XI Punjab. RCB's tweet was in response to those fans who had trolled Umesh Yadav after he nearly failed to defend 26 runs off the final over in the RCB vs CSK IPL 2019 match on April 21.
And while RCB took down their tweet after coming under-fire from fans, Ashoke Dinda was not in a forgiving mood and took to Instagram to pen a stinging reply for all his "haters".
Ashoke Dinda has played 115 first-class matches, taking 417 wickets at an average of 28.35 and an economy rate of 3.10.
Dinda has also played 13 ODIs and nine T20Is for the Indian cricket team.
In 13 ODIs, Dinda has taken 12 wickets at a strike-rate of 49.5 and an economy rate of 6.18 while in T20Is, the fast bowler has 17 scalps in just 9 games at a brilliant strike-rate of 10.5.
In 78 IPL matches, Ashoke Dinda has 69 wickets at an economy rate of 8.2 and a strike-rate of 21.97.
