"It was unfortunate because it was an important point: it was 3-3 and I was coming back," Sania Mirza said later.

The commotion in the 5000 strong crowd, mainly Indian expatriates, all supporting Sania Mirza, proved negative to her today.

Sania Mirza also found it annoying as she walked to the umpire's chair and complained about topsy-turvyness.

"If I had got that point maybe everything would have been different," Sania Mirza refered to the situation later.

"I still think the linesman made a call but obviously he didn't because he said so. The only thing which was wrong was that the umpire put his finger up. And I stopped playing. This is something which is not in your control," Sania Mirza said.

Sania Mirza was realistic, when she said, "But I am going to get a lot more bad calls in my career and a lot more good ones too."

Sania Mirza went to the court carrying two or three injuries including a strained arm which was heavily strapped.
