Bangalore: Australia assistant coach David Saker dismissed Virat Kohli's claim, that the visitors systematically sought dressing room advice for DRS calls in the second Test, as "absurd and offensive".

"It's pretty much absurd I think, when Steven Smith did look up (to the team balcony after being given out lbw) we were more horrified than anyone else because we'd never seen that before," Saker told the Australian media yesterday.
