Samar Khan and Rahul Puri are back with their weekly round-up of sports. The duo discusses Champions League, the amazing goal by Ronaldo that has rocked the world of football and the IPL madness. Samar Khan starts the discussion on Ronaldo by saying: “He might not be as masterful and crafty as Messi or as pleasing to the eye but he gets the goal and gets it in emphatic fashion.”Rahul Puri expresses his views on Ronaldo. He says, “I may not be Ronaldo’s biggest fan because of the team he has chosen to play for and there is biased attached but you can’t take away the fact that this man isn’t just a phenomenon. He’s not Messi and he doesn’t have that complete influence on a game from a sheer footballing point of view but look at the number of goals he scores.”Khan brings in the statistics. “Ronaldo has scored  119 goals in the Champions League, that’s actually more goals than Liverpool has scored in their entire history of Champions League.” Puri adds, “The most fascinating is that it boiled down into this rivalry where they both ended up in one country playing for these two great rivals and that further enhances this…but then again, what a goal!!” In the world of cricket, they talk about IPL. Khan puts forth his first point: "More than Steve Smith, David Warner would be a big miss for the Sunrisers Hyderabad because he has been an inspirational captain." Puri says: "They (Sunrisers Hyderabad) will now need more runs from the middle order engine."Talking about other teams Puri says: "I don't think either Delhi or Punjab have great strengths in bowling so they have to focus on their batting. Bangalore and Mumbai are very well run franchises that have got core players. Chennai Superkings have got good reputation and pedigree in IPL."All this and more on this week's Just Sports.
