Pujara claims Australia used live DRS feed in 2017 series
Cheteshwar Pujara claimed that Australia had access to a live dressing-room feed during the 2017 India-Australia series, giving them an unfair advantage in DRS decisions. The India batter said every time Australia took a review, it proved correct.
Pujara revealed the practice while discussing Steve Smith's controversial 'brain fade' dismissal during that series. He said the live feed allowed Australia to make more informed DRS calls than was fair.
The claims add to ongoing debates about technology use in international cricket. No official response has been made by Cricket Australia regarding the allegations.
