US President Barack Obama, hosting leaders from the six- nation Gulf Cooperation Council for a rare summit at the Camp David presidential retreat, pledged that the US would coop- erate with them to address what he called Iran’s “destabilising activities in the region”. Qatar’s Emir H H Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani took part in the summit. “As we’ve declared in our joint statement, the United States is prepared to work jointly with GCC member states to deter and confront an external threat to any GCC state’s territorial integrity that is inconsistent with the UN charter,” Obama told reporters, with Gulf leaders standing by his side at the end of the talks. Obama vowed to back Gulf allies against any “external attack”. Obama promised a “concrete series of steps” from the one-day summit as he sought to allay Gulf Emir H H Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani and leaders and heads of GCC states attending the summit with US President Barack Obama at Camp David in Maryland yesterday.

  • 02, Jun 2016 the Lions Show in Saurashtra IPL Debutant Gujarat
    02, Jun 2016 The Lions show in Saurashtra IPL debutant Gujarat Lions almost scripted a fairy tale, they lost in the virtual semifinal, but they won many hearts not only in Rajkot but everywhere they played, but undoubtedly the foundation was laid at the Saurashtra Cricket Association (SCA) Stadium in Khanderi. A look at all their five matches which they played in one of the most magnificent stadium in the world… Match No 1 Lions off to a great start The home team started their campaign in Rajkot with a crushing seven-wicket win against Rising Pune Supergiants. It was billed as the match between MS Dhoni versus his boys as most of the Gujarat Lions players this year are former Dhoni’s team mates when he was leading the now disbanded Chennai Super Kings team. Batting first Supergiants looked set for a score in excess of 180, but a superb display of defensive bowling towards the end turned the contest in Lions' favour. Aaron Finch and Brendon McCullum then effectively killed the game by pillaging 62 in the Powerplay, during their chase of 164. MS Dhoni had pulled back some momentum for Supergiants by contributing to a 20-run last over in the first innings, but his bowlers threw it all away. Loose deliveries stacked up, and the Lions openers duly dispatched them. Four fours and two sixes off the seamers, RP Singh and Ishant Sharma, meant Dhoni turned to M Ashwin in the last over of the Powerplay, but Finch took the legspinner for four fours in a 19-run over.
