    "editor1": "<p>Former Pakistan speedster Shoaib Akhtar expressed his shock over Team India&#39;s poor performance in the ongoing T20 World Cup and said that there appears to be &quot;divisions&quot; within the side.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Akhtar&#39;s remarks came after Virat Kohli and his brigade lost their second Group 2 match against New Zealand on Sunday by eight wickets. Speaking in a video on his Youtube channel, Akhtar said that there may be two camps within the Indian team, one of which may be against the Indian skipper.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Why I can see that there are two camps within the team? One is with the Kohli and one against Kohli. It&#39;s crystal clear. The team is looking divided. I don&#39;t know why this is happening. Maybe it&#39;s because of his last T20 World Cup as a skipper. Maybe he made wrong decisions, which is true. But he&#39;s a great cricketer, and we have to respect him,&quot; Akhtar said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The former pacer further slammed Team India for their attitude against Kiwis.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Yes, criticism is important because they played bad cricket against New Zealand and had the wrong attitude. Yesterday, after they lost the toss, everyone&#39;s heads were down.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;They had no idea whatsoever. India, you only lost the toss by that time, not the whole match. They were just present there, and had no gameplan whatsoever.&quot; Akhtar signed off.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Also Read: <\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/t20-cricket-world-cup\">T20 World Cup 2021<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The Men in Blue will next play Afghanistan in their third game of the T20 World Cup in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday. Before the New Zealand defeat, India had faced a crushing loss in their T20 World Cup opener against Pakistan.<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
