    "editor1": "<p><strong>Lahore, May 1:<\/strong>&nbsp;Former Pakistan speedster Shoaib Akhtar announced on social media that he has received a legal notice for calling Pakistan Cricket Board&#39;s legal advisor incompetent. He went on to say that the legal notice is based upon lies from Tafazzul Rizvi and he still stands by his words.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Akhtar&#39;s post read: &quot;I&#39;ve received a notice from Tafazzul Rizvi which is based on lies &amp; fabrications. I&#39;ve engaged @SalmanKNiazi1 as my lawyer to send befitting legal reply on my behalf to said notice. I stand by my words regarding incompetence &amp; unsatisfactory performance of Rizvi.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Akhtar had earlier blasted the PCB and its legal team in the aftermath of the three-year ban given to batsman Umar Akmal.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The Rawalpindi Express had also criticised Rizvi, whom he described as an &#39;inept person&#39; for being hard on Akmal but not being able to &#39;read a basic contract&#39;.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Following this, Rizvi filed a criminal and defamation suit against Akhtar. In a statement, PCB said that it was disappointed with Akhtar&#39;s &#39;poor choice of words&#39; and that Rizvi has initiated the proceedings at his own discretion.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Former Pakistan skipper Younus Khan has come in support of Akhtar. &quot;What a befitting and bitter truth spoken by Shoaib Akhtar! It takes a backbone to be simply uncompromisingly forthright. Time for Pakistan Cricket Board to honestly evaluate his remarks for the betterment of Pakistan cricket and its players. I stand by with Shoaib Akhtar,&quot; Younus said on Twitter.<\/p>\r\n",
