Johnson, who retired last year with 590 wickets in international cricket, echoed the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) opinion on the issue, saying decisions made by on-field umpires should stand until the technology improves and becomes accurate.

"If we can make sure that technology is used to get the right decision every time, then that's great. But until then, I'm not so sure."
