Samar Khan and Rahul Puri are back with the weekly round-up of sports. They discuss the Champions League; Cristiano Ronaldo is one man who never disappoints when relied upon. Real Madrid keep raising their performance bar in big matches. Liverpool enter the quarter-final after 2009. Moving to cricket, the duo discusses BCCI’s players’ contract and what it means to the players. In the context of Mohammad Shami, Rahul Puri opines infidelity is not a crime and BCCI’s move putting the player’s contract on hold is unjust. Sledging is an unavoidable part of cricket, Puri says, and that cricket should start issuing Yellow Cards and Red Cards. All this and more on this week’s Just Sports.
