Illingworth 'distraught' by wrong no-ball call
Umpire Richard Illingworth was "distraught" when he discovered that he had incorrectly called a no-ball that reprieved Adam Voges on the first day in Wellington, according to match referee Chris Broad.
Voges went on to score 239 in a match-defining innings; he was on 7 at the time when he left a delivery and was bowled off the Doug Bracewell no-ball, despite a significant part of the bowler's heel being behind the crease. Under the ICC playing conditions, a no-ball can be retrospectively called but not rescinded, so there was nothing that could be done about the call after Illingworth had made it.
"Unfortunately Richard was distraught afterwards when he realised that it wasn't a no ball," Broad told the Daily Telegraph. "… I think when anyone is proved wrong in any decision that they make it's clearly embarrassing at the time. But umpires, particularly on the elite panel have a great ability to be able to overcome that feeling and get on with the game.
"There can be nothing done about it. The problem is that when an umpire calls a no-ball, you can't change that decision because under the laws a batsman may change his shot when the no-ball is called. It was called - that's the end of the matter. Richard is a Yorkshireman, he shrugs his shoulders and gets on with it. I'm constantly amazed at how the umpires, when they do make their occasional errors, are able to recover from it."

Mitchell Starc, the Australian left-arm
pacer who is currently undergoing
rehabilitation for foot and ankle
injuries, is eyeing a comeback during
his team's tour of Sri Lanka in July.

summer was cut short after he
suffered stress fractures during the
historic day-night Test against New
Zealand in November, told
cricket.com.au on Thursday (February
25) that he is making a slow but steady
progress and wants to be 100 percent
fit ahead of the Sri Lanka series.

soon after, forced him to undergo
rehabilitation work at the National
Cricket Centre in Brisbane. Read more Mitchell Starc eyes comeback during Sri Lanka tour in July - Cricbuzz
