Could not find function 'fread' in R 3.4 while reading a big dataset

I have installed package "microbenchmark" and then run: library(microbenchmark).

Now, I am trying to read a csv file, but getting the error: "fread" function not found. 

setwd("C:/Data Analytics/R Assignments")
library(microbenchmark)
data <- fread("BigDiamonds.csv") 

Error in
fread("BigDiamonds.csv") : could not find function "fread"

I have been using R 3.4. Could that be the issue?

rstudio fread r

Try this. It worked for me

install.packages("data.table")
library("data.table")
data <- fread("BigDiamonds.csv")
