Just 20 days after playing his first game for his new team, Goa, former India, and Bengal pacer Ashok Dinda on Tuesday quit all forms of cricket citing a knee injury. Dinda, who turns 37 in a couple of months, said that age also played a role in his retirement.

"I injured my knee which is why I didn't play the last two matches. My body wasn't permitted. I still have to swell in my knee. I can't run. Also, I am 37. As a fast bowler, 37 is a lot. Otherwise, there is no reason why I should have quit. My body is not permitting," Dinda, played 13 One-day Internationals and nine T20 Internationals told IANS.
