The Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) on Wednesday gave Ashoke Dinda a No Objection Certificate (NOC) so that the veteran Bengal pacer can play for any other state.
Dinda, who has played 13 ODIs and nine T20Is for India, had earlier declared that he would sign up to play for a new team in the 2020-21 domestic season.
Bengal had dropped Dinda, 36, midway through the 2019-20 season after a fallout with bowling coach Ranadeb Bose.
"We are sure that you would certainly perform well for the team that you intend to play for since there is still a lot of cricket left in you," CAB President Avishek Dalmiya said in a letter to Dinda.
Dinda has also played from some reputed IPL franchises. In 2008, he started his IPL career with Kolkata Night Riders, then after he joined Delhi Daredevils(now Delhi Capitals) in 2011. In 2012, he moved to Pune Warriors India and in 2014 he became part of Kohli's Royal Challengers Bnaglore and finally in 2016, he became part of Rsising pune Supergiant.
