Wicketkeeper-batsman Parthiv Patel and former Australia batsman Dean Jones were involved in yet another hilarious banter on Twitter. Both of them were involved in a banter last month too when Jones had hilariously taunted Mike Hesson for retaining Parthiv Patel for the next season of Indian Premier League (IPL).

On that occasion, Parthiv Patel had the last laugh. It all started when Jones cheekily questioned Royal Challengers Bangalore’s decision to retain Parthiv Patel. Parthiv Patel then came up with a fitting reply, telling Jones: “So that u can be at peace during ipl in #selectdugout….”

Parthiv was one of the positives for Royal Challengers Bangalore in an otherwise yet another dismal campaign. Royal Challengers Bangalore once again failed to live up to the expectations and finished at the bottom of the points table. They started disastrously and lost the first six games of the campaign. They did improve towards the end of the season but the damage was already done.

The Bangalore-based outfit eventually finished the campaign with the wooden spoon after winning just five of their 14 league games. But unlike the team, Parthiv Patel was a consistent performer during the season. The left-handed batsman finished the campaign with 373 runs. He was the third highest run-scorer for the team.

Parthiv Patel and Dean Jones at it again:

Talking about the latest round of duel between Dean Jones and Parthiv Patel on Twitter, the Australian started it by taking a dig at the latter’s short height. With Royal Challengers Bangalore signing up Australia captain Aaron Finch, Jones tweeted:

“How lucky are you @parthiv9 opening the batting with an Aussie @AaronFinch5.. you life just got easier! @RCBTweets He still is taller than you… but then again.. most cricketers are.”

But Parthiv Patel once again came up with a brilliant response to have the last laugh. Parthiv took a dig at Jones over his spending more time in India due to work commitments and wrote:

“I like to work with an Aussie…@AaronFinch5 is brilliant..and he is spending more time in Australia…unlike u @ProfDeano..thank god u r gng home at least for Christmas…merry Christmas…??”
