#JustSports 59: World Cup qualifiers, Ashes and more

Samar Khan and Rahul Puri are back with their weekly round -up of sports, they talk about Gianluigi Buffon and his style of goal-keeping, and the professionalism he displays while playing.

They also discuss how the FIFA Football World Cup is going to be weird as there won’t be big teams like Italy, the Netherlands and Chile. They talk about how Italy lost out as they were playing almost without any striker, and hence were not able to score goals.

The discussion on mind games before the Ashes, and the bowling of James Anderson and Stuart Broad in foreign conditions, if right, can take England towards victory. Also, they talk about how it’s an open series and both the teams have a chance to win. They discuss how both batting orders can be got out, leaving the bowlers with a rare advantage.
