    "editor1": "<p><strong>London, Aug 11<\/strong>-&nbsp;Opening batsman David Warner has dismissed suggestions that the presence of wives and girlfriends of Australian cricketers led to their poor performance in the ongoing Ashes series.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The visitors were comprehensively outplayed by England and currently trail the five-Test series 1-3. Their poor performance has led to a wave of criticism with some pundits including former Australian wicketkeeper Ian Healy asserting that the presence of partners on tour was a distraction.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Warner, however, feels that the presence of his wife Candice and daughter Ivy Mae helped him to perform better.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;I love having my family on tour. Everyone out there knows that when you go to work on a day-to-day basis, when you come home to your family, it&#39;s a great thing and that always keeps me smiling,&quot; the 28-year-old was quoted as saying by telegraph.co.uk on Tuesday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;The other day we had a bad day. We went in the change rooms, we all spoke about it, we got over it, came home and we have our families here and we&#39;re all down together playing with our kids in the foyer. It&#39;s fantastic to have them along.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Warner said the conglomerate of Australian players and their families was no different to any other functional working environment where people aren&#39;t necessarily best mates, but strive to work towards a common goal.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Not everyone is going to see eye-to-eye on a long tour. There&#39;s going to be the odd hiccup here and there but you just deal with it. That&#39;s what happens in the work environment,&quot; he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;You&#39;ve just got to work out a way to make sure that does not disrupt anything going forward. And in our camp at the moment there&#39;s nothing there that&#39;s been disruptive.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>(IANS)<\/p>\r\n",
