The BCCI has decided to convene a special general meeting on September 30 in Mumbai to consider the amendments recommended by the Lodha Committee to the rules and regulations of the board.That [convening the SGM] is part of our compliance report, so we are sticking to that, BCCI secretary Ajay Shirke told reporters in Mumbai at the conclusion of the AGM.The Lodha Committee, in its first set of timelines for the implementation of its reforms, had directed the BCCI to adopt the amended Memorandum of Association and Rules and Regulation by September 30. The state associations were also asked to amend their constitutions within the same period. Asked if the board would adopt a revised constitution on the day of the SGM, Shirke said it was subject to factors that were external to the BCCI.On August 31, in an email to BCCI chief executive Rahul Johri, the Lodha Committee spokesperson had said the AGM should be limited to routine business concerning the past year (2015-16) and that any business or matters relating to the next year (2016-17) be dealt with only after the BCCI implements the Committees recommendations.A press release from the board said the proceedings of the AGM were being conducted for the compliance of statutory provisions under which the BCCI is constituted to ensure that day-to-day operations dont suffer, and was subject to the orders of the honourable Supreme Court. Shirke also said the BCCI had communicated details regarding the AGM to the Lodha panel. And, of course, we will submit our second progress report also which is due, he said.When asked about the validity of his election as secretary, Shirke defended it as the fulfillment of of a day-to-day function. Shirke, however, said the board would abide by the courts decision should it disagree with the BCCIs view. One can question anything, but the BCCI has to function. You will agree that the BCCI has to function on a day-to-day basis, he said. There is the 500th Test match starting tomorrow. Do we say that, ok, the BCCI will function without the secretary?The secretary is the principal officer whose election had come to an end, and going forward - whether it is to take instructions from the court or take decisions arising out of court [judgment] - the secretary is the empowered person. This is merely carrying out our day-to-day affairs and all our decisions are subject to any orders of the court. It might be that tomorrow the court says that, listen, everything is bad or illegal, we will have to go by that.It is understood the board had sought legal opinion before going ahead with the AGM. The board has got legal opinion from one Mr Ashok Desai, a Supreme Court advocate, on the timelines drawn up by the Lodha Committee, a state official, who attended the AGM, told ESPNcricinfo. They [Lodha Committee] havent stopped the board from doing it [carrying out routine business at the AGM]. That is what [BCCI has been given as legal opinion]. Cheap Jordan 12 Gym Red .

DAVIE, Fla. -- The Miami Dolphins are 0-3 on the road as they begin a two-game West Coast swing in San Diego, where they lost last year, and theyre also 0-3 in the Pacific Time Zone since 2011.But the Dolphins headed to the airport Thursday flying high thanks to a three-game winning streak , all achieved at home.Were excited about this opportunity, running back Jay Ajayi said. We know the challenge of whats in front of us, that its not going to be easy traveling coast to coast, but were excited about our opponent this weekend, and it should be fun.After playing the Chargers, the Dolphins (4-4) will spend next week in Carlsbad, California, and then play the Rams in Los Angeles on Nov. 20. Its the first time the Dolphins have played back-to-back West Coast games since 2004, and a first for most of the players, including seven-year veteran Ndamukong Suh.I find it fun to get away, Suh said. A lot of team bonding, which I think will be good for us.The trip means big change in a sport where theres a rhythm to the weekly routine, both at work and at home.Being away from home, obviously, is a challenge, especially for guys that have families, said quarterback Ryan Tannehill, who recently became a first-time father. To prepare and get your body and mind ready to go when youre out of your normal routine, thats going to be the challenge.Miami has overcome every challenge lately, with victories over the Steelers, Bills and Jets during an NFL-record 44-day homestand. The streak represented a turnaround after a 1-4 start that included road losses at Seattle, New England and Tennessee.The Dolphins believe theyre much-improved lately under first-year coach Adam Gase.When you face adversity and you find a way to persevere, I think it gives you a lot of confidence, Tannehill. The past couple weeks weve been down in games and there has been no panic. There have been no tremors on the sideline of, `OK, here we go, or, `What are we going to do now? Its, ``Were going to be able to find a way to win the game.dddddddddddd When you have that attitude, that mindset -- whether its offense or defense -- youre going to win a lot of games.Thats what the Dolphins have done lately, and they have a chance at their first four-game winning streak since 2008, their most recent playoff season.There are benefits to taking a team on the road, Gase said, which he witnessed when the Dolphins opened the season at Seattle.We saw a lot of guys going out to eat together, and it wasnt guys that you would expect to see gravitate toward each other, he said. We did think that was a good thing for us at that time. Weve had four home games in a row, weve been here for quite a while, and getting away will probably be a good thing for us.The game will be the first in San Diego since voters overwhelmingly rejected a measure that would have raised $1.15 billion from increased hotel occupancy taxes to help pay for a new stadium, raising anew speculation the Chargers might move.Theyre last in the AFC West at 4-5, but theyre 3-1 at home, and beat Miami 30-14 in San Diego last December.Were a whole different team this year than we were last year, said Ajayi, who has led the Dolphins turnaround by rushing for 529 yards in the past three games.Gase isnt too worried about the temptations of Southern California during his players free time next week -- although he has considered a curfew.Hopefully weve got enough guys that are leaders that will step up and remind guys, `Dont ruin this for everybody, Gase said.
