Just Sports Episode 88: German player Mesut Ozil’s racism claims, the test series in England & more
02/08/2018 Duration: 21minIn this episode of Just Sports, Rahul Puri and Samar Khan discuss German player Mesut Ozil’s racism claims, the upcoming test series in England, India’s middle and top order, and the EPL transfer window. Rahul and Samar disagree slightly on whether there was weight behind Ozil’s claims of racism and disrespect. While both feel that the politics of Europe had a role to play here, Samar feels that Ozil was being somewhat of a “crybaby”, while Rahul thinks there were problems in the German squad as a whole, with Ozil being used as a “scapegoat”. They then give a recap of the transfer window, which is experiencing a bit of a lull currently, going into detail about the Eden Hazard deal. Next is a preview of the ongoing test series, Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s injuries and what it means for India’s bowling, Virat Kohli as an X factor, and the batting order. For more, listen in!

01/08/2018 Duration: 26minपाटीदार नेता हार्दिक पटेल एक बार फिर 25 अगस्त से पाटीदारों व किसानों के हितों के लिए आंदोलन करने की तैयारी में हैं. न्यूज़लॉन्ड्री से बातचीत में उन्होंने मोदी सरकार, आगामी लोकसभा चुनाव और राष्ट्रीय व राजकीय राजनीति से संबंधित कई सवालों पर अपनी राय दी. बीते दिनों हार्दिक पटेल को गुजरात हाई कोर्ट ने दो साल की सजा सुनाई है. फिलहाल हार्दिक जमानत पर हैं और कानूनी लड़ाई लड़ने की तैयारी कर रहे हैं. 2019 लोकसभा चुनावों के संबंध में हार्दिक ने कहा कि वे राहुल गांधी या ममता बैनर्जी को प्रधानमंत्री बनते देखना चाहते हैं. अगर ऐसे संयोग न बन सके तो उन्हें मायावती की प्रधानमंत्री पद की भी उम्मीदवारी का समर्थन करने में भी कोई दिक्कत नहीं है. क्या वे 2019 का चुनाव लड़ेंगे? इस सवाल के जवाब में हार्दिक स्पष्ट करते हैं कि वे लोकसभा चुनाव नहीं लड़ने वाले. उनका कहना है, "जब हमारे सामने मुख्यमंत्री और प्रधानमंत्री नहीं टिक सके. ऐसे में जरूरी नहीं है कि संसद में बैठकर यश लिया जाए." याद दिलाते चलें कि गुजरात की तिकड़ी (अल्पेश ठाकुर, हार्दिक पटेल और जिग्नेश मेवानी) में से जिग्नेश भी गुजरात चुनाव से पहले तक यही बोलते रहे थे कि वे चुनाव न
