Johnson lashes no-ball non-call

THE crucial no-ball that denied Michael Beer his first Test scalp should have been called by umpire Billy Bowden rather than referred as Australia was celebrating, Mitchell Johnson said last night.

The left-arm tweaker was denied a dream start to his career when, on just his 14th delivery on the big stage, he had the most prolific batsman of the series caught, only for Bowden to stop Alastair Cook from walking off, to check the suspected no-ball for overstepping the mark. It proved an illegal delivery, and was the second English wicket overturned for a no-ball in as many Tests.

The ICC has recently allowed this new avenue for umpires to check but Johnson, who was denied Matt Prior's scalp in Melbourne, is frustrated.

Asked if he was happy with the referral system on no-balls, Johnson replied: ''Personally, I guess, being in that situation, probably not. It can be frustrating, I guess. If the umpires know it's a no-ball I think they should call it, instead of waiting to call it.

''I think everyone's going to have different opinions on it. My opinion is, I suppose it's not a bad thing, but it can be frustrating if - I suppose you've just got to get your foot behind the line.''

Adding to the confusion was a suggestion that Beer should have been warned by Bowden for earlier deliveries that might have been no-balls. ''Looking at his footmarks, he looked like there was a few tight ones there and Shane Watson actually looked at it and thought the same thing, that he might be over because there were a few marks there,'' Johnson said.

''That's where the review system isn't so great, I don't know, or whether he was told it was close. It's pretty hard with the spinner when his foot's in the air and all that kind of stuff. We need to fix the issue. It's happened a couple of times now and it's something we need to improve in the nets.''

Johnson sympathised with his teammate: ''I know how he feels. I think he handled it very well in the end.

''It was disappointing for him that he couldn't get his first wicket, and it would have been a good wicket to get, as well, being Cook. I think the way he handled himself after that and the way he bowled was good signs for us.''

Cook was already trudging off in disappointment while an elated Australian team gathered around Beer, but the spinner's horrified expression when he realised Bowden had referred to the video official signified the deflation of the moment.

But England paceman James Anderson supported the process and said umpires should use it more.

''I think it's good cricket, because the correct decision comes out at the end of the day,'' Anderson said.

''I think they should do it more often. I don't think they use it enough.

''A no-ball is a no-ball, and you should get the correct decision when he's bowled one. We think it's a very important part of our job to stay behind the line - even more so in one-day cricket.

''We try and practise it in the nets, and I hope we can replicate that out there.''

Johnson could not explain why, even with bowling coach Troy Cooley analysing their run-ups with a measuring tape, they continue to overstep the line.

''We all try and do it, get behind the line,'' Johnson said.

''Whether you feel enclosed with the nets being there, I don't know what it is. I still bowl half a foot over in the nets but I don't know how we're going to fix that.''

Daniela Hantuchová updates

Daniela Hantuchová (Slovak pronunciation: [ˈdanɪjɛla ˈɦantuxɔvaː]; born April 23, 1983) is a Slovak professional tennis player. She turned professional in 1999 and had her breakthrough year in 2002, when she won her first Tier I tournament and ended the year in the top ten.

She is currently coached by Larri Passos.Her WTA Tour mentor in the "Partners for Success" program was Martina Navrátilová, who was her doubles partner for a brief period in early 2005. As of November 8, 2010, Hantuchová is ranked World No. 30 in singles.
Hantuchová was born in Poprad, Czechoslovakia (now Slovakia) to father Igor, a computer scientist and mother Marianna, a toxicologist.

When her parents split up in 2003, Hantuchová's performances temporarily worsened. At Wimbledon that year, failing to convert match points and weeping on court.She also suffered from a weight problem during this period. She was suspected of being anorexic, however Hantuchová denied this.

Hantuchová speaks three languages (Slovak, English and German), and was trained as a classical pianist. She is thought to be a perfectionist and puts a lot of pressure on herself during her training.She qualified for university in Slovakia but deferred it to pursue tennis.

She appeared in the 2009 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition alongside Maria Kirilenko and Tatiana Golovin in a pictoral entitled Volley of the Dolls
Hantuchová can be characterized as an aggressive all-arounder, with the use of "effortless" power and long fluid strokes. Her strengths within her game are definitely seen as her serve, backhand, forehand and ability to hit volleys with the deftest of touch.[23] Weaknesses of Hantuchová's game are her movement around the court, which has improved within the last couple of years, and her mental fragility - this has been a factor in many matches in her career, from her second round losses at the French Open and Wimbledon in 2003 to her 2004 final in Eastbourne, to the 2008 Australian Open semi-final and her fourth round match at the 2010 Sony Ericsson Open to name but a few.
