<"http:www.sportskeedaplayerg-gambhir">Gautam Gambhir is at the receiving end of a lot of flak these days. While some would argue that the allegations against him are the product of ill-conceived publicity http://www.cheapnfljerseyseagles.com/alshon-jeffery/ , others believe that the accusations are quite justified. Recently, following the home series against England, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, the captain of India, lodged a complaint against the left-handed opening batsman. Apparently, Gautam Gambhir profile is adjudged a tad non-altruistic.
Dhoni has stated that he is appalled at Gambhir’s on-field attitude and ethics. Dhoni expresses that Gambhir is not working towards the betterment of the Indian team but is singularly focusing on cementing his place in the squad. Gambhir has even treaded over the social norms to unsavory territories and is appearing to be hurtful to the rest of his team mates. Simply put http://www.cheapnfljerseyseagles.com/nelson-agholor/ , he sorely lacks a good sports man’s spirit. He has been a little off his usual good form lately which in turn has been a blow to his self-esteem. The frustration that he has been facing is being channeled out to his colleagues.
Dhoni cites an incident that happened during a match in the Mumbai Test series where Gambhir batted in the second innings but seemed to be hell bent on not getting out than actually scoring runs. While R Ashwin, who is a non-specialist batsman, was scoring vital runs during the Kolkata Test series, Gambhir chose to remain inactive. Add to this a couple more disappointing moves by Gambhir, and you get a Dhoni, who is ready to explode. It needs to be maintained here that http://www.cheapnfljerseyseagles.com/jay-ajayi/ , Dhoni is in no way questioning the Gautam Gambhir statistics, integrity or loyalty, just his overall involvement with the Indian team. So having no other choice, Dhoni, without dragging out the issue further, has gone straight to the The Board Of Control For Cricket In India and lodged a complaint. The BCCI officials are slated to look into the matter and level the issues with Gambhir prior to the upcoming match.
Just as there are two sides to coin http://www.cheapnfljerseyseagles.com/brian-dawkins/ , so in all fairness, Gambhir is sure to have his version of the story. People close to Gambhir assert that he could be the victim of a power play and Dhoni is in fact really threatened and insecure about losing his captaincy and possibly visualises Gambhir as a plausible threat. Whatever may be the case, just remember there is no ‘I’ in ‘team’, but there sure is one each in ‘Dhoni’ and Gambhir’.

DENVER, the United States, June 29 (Xinhua) -- Wildfires exploding across America's West sent thousands of firefighters scrambling and dismayed officials hoping the drought had ended.
Dozens of fires are being fought in 11 Western states with more than 20 big blazes http://www.cheapnfljerseyseagles.com/carson-wentz/ , each consuming 10,000 acres (40.5 square km) and threatening homes and lives.
Arizona is the hardest hit so far this fire season with the Frye fire consuming 39,567 acres (160.1 square km) of land and the Goodwin fire causing hundreds of evacuations in the Arizona mountains near the town of Prescott.
"This is a little college town ... but we've seen some terrible wildfires," Prescott College student Eleanora Brown told Xinhua Wednesday.
Brown said the town of 40,000 had been shrouded in smoke from the fire since it began last Saturday, with the streets filled with people "packing up and getting out."
Wednesday http://www.cheapnfljerseyseagles.com/ , Arizona Governor Doug Ducey declared a state of emergency and directed 200,000 U.S. dollars in emergency funds to fire suppression efforts and reimbursements for emergency response and recovery costs.
Ducey planed to travel to Yavapai County on Thursday to inspire the 600 firefighters battling the wind-driven blaze that had burned more than 32 square miles (82.9 square km) so far.
This fire is close to a devastating tragedy that occurred in 2013. Nineteen city of Prescott firefighters were killed fighting the Yarnell Hill fire when the wind suddenly changed direction.
"That was a horrible event, so sad, so tragic," remembered Brown, a special education major.
By Wednesday http://www.cheapnfljerseyseagles.com/donnie-jones/ , the Goodwin Fire had consumed 21,000 acres (84.9 square km) and caused the evacuations of hundreds from their homes. Only 2 percent of it was contained.
Arizona's other big blaze is in the southern part of the state near the Mexico border. The Frye Fire was only 45 percent contained by Wednesday, the forest service at Coronado National Forest said.
More than 840 personnel are battling the fire that started from lightning on June 7. The Frye Fire is about 70 miles (120 km) northeast of Tucson, the second-largest city in Arizona.
Also in Arizona the Boundary fire, the Snake Ridge fire and the Lizard fire, ravaging across 47 http://www.cheapnfljerseyseagles.com/jason-kelce/ ,000 acres (190.2 square km) led officials to believe the worst is yet to come.
A heavy snowpack last winter throughout the West's mountainous regions caused a late spring and sporadic flooding, with many conservationists hoping for an end to the drought that has hit the region since 2011.
2012 was the third worst year for wildfires, with 9.2 million acres (37231.1 square km) burned, according to the National Interagency Fire Center. Colorado was hit hard that year with 600 homes destroyed and several deaths blamed on the fires.
High fire danger continues throughout Colorado and the Western states. According to Denver meteorologist Ed Greene, "fire danger is very high with gusty winds and low humidity."
Wednesday night, drought-stricken California saw a dozen homes in the foothills north of Los Angeles threatened by wildfire.
Evacuation orders were issued for more than 50 homes Wednesday afternoon as flames swept through grasses and trees toward pricey hilltop homes in the Verdugo Hills area of Burbank http://www.cheapnfljerseyseagles.com/vinny-curry/ , 20 km northwest of downtown LA.
In Utah, firefighters braced for more high winds as they tried. |
