Aakash Chopra took a dig at Dean Jones over the recent DRS controversy that saw Steve Smith ask for help from the dressing room during the second Test between India and Australia at Bengaluru. While tweeting about predictions, Chopra picked the opportune moment to remind the Aussie of DRS-gate.

It started with a fan asking Aakash Chopra for his prediction for the third Test in Ranchi, which is scheduled to start on March 16. The former Indian international dragged Dean Jones into the conversation and asked for his thoughts after stating that he was expecting a win for India. The Australian, though had a completely different take on the issue stating that the Indian team and media were spooked by the performance of the visitors so far followed by the hashtags “#beafriad” and “#wearecoming”.

India Wins 😊 @ProfDeano, any thoughts on this on this one? https://t.co/uD8SPQA42n

However, it was the Indian who came back with a quick tweet asking the Aussie if he could seek some help "from the dressing room" to review the tweet.

But, the duo were not done yet as Dean started a new Twitter battle after wishing his Indian followers a happy Holi by telling the Indian not to use too much "green and gold colors" during the festival.

The Indian quipped back saying that he was not using colors but flowers this season that would be used to create a garland for the Indian team's victory. 

However, that was still not the end of the conversation as Dean said that garlands were meant for horses while they (Australia) won cups to which Chopra replied that in India garlands were meant for Gods while cups were used for tea and coffee.
