I'll try to explain the rules for you. When you serve you must serve above the middle line into the other side of the court from the service box. After that you only have to hit the ball above the bottom line and below the top line. Players take turns to hit the ball and the ball has to hit the front wall but it can hit one of the other walls first. The ball can only touch the floor once before you hit it and after that it can't touch the floor untill it touches the front wall. I hope this helps

I have played, coached and refereed Squash for around 50 years (yep, I'm an old fart). In that time, I have had the pleasure of watching many of the greats playing live: Geoff Hunt, Jonah Barrington, Rod Martin and Rod Eyles and the imperious Jansher Khan (but sadly, not Jehangir). Statistically, Jansher and Jehangir are clearly the GOATS ('greatest of all time') of Squash -- followed closely by Hunt, Barrington, Hashim and a few others -- but for me, despite his smaller trophy cabinet (probably attributable to his chronic hamstring problem), Ramy Ashour is probably, in absolute terms, the best player ever (despite me not seeing him play live). Jehangir and Jansher had unbelievable playing and retrieving skills, but Ramy also has those skills, and an additional very important skill -- he sees the ball *very* early and volleys much more than they did (they seemed content to pick many balls off the back wall). Unfortunately, we can't really compare players from different eras properly, but for me Ramy is the GOAT -- even if you disagree with that, you might agree he is the most exciting and entertaining player -- and a great sportsman! BTW -- I'm from Australia, so no rose-coloured glasses here!

Rackets were indeed heavier in the 1980s during Jehangir's reign (160-180 gms?) -- but, as I recall, by the 90s (Jansher's reign) rackets were of similar weights to the typical rackets used by professionals today (125-135) But I add that Ramy has anticipation and volleying skills that are a class above all of his contemporaries (e.g. watch El Shorbagy play mostly ground strokes unless the ball is loose -- whereas Ramy is on the volley-attack at every opportunity)

It's not Ramy's best squash. As good as Wilstrop is, he's simply not in the same league as Ramy. I would nominate Ramy's 2014 El Gouna Classic win over Elshorbagy as some of the best squash ever played. It almost doesn't look like squash anymore--at least not the classic game played by Wilstrop et al.
@Diderik79 жыл бұрын
It seem he play better against Mohamed just because ElShorbagy play at a higher pace than Willstrop, he play fast and furious so he can beat Ashour with power and pace and Ashour keep his pace so the game become superfast and full of winners, meanwhile Willstrop play at a slower rithym trying to slow Ashour pace so he can´t play winners and looking for create good ocasion with accurate shots and make Ramy do mistakes, but he is superb in his style when he is in form!!, the proof is how he beat Elshorbagy on the World Championship last year

It’s easy to play great squash when the ball is played loose all the time and unfortunately a very tired Wilstrop wasn’t able to keep it anywhere near tight enough. The GOAT for me was without a doubt Jahangir. I have seen him play for hours up and down the wall keeping the ball so tight there really was no chance to attack, but I have also seen him play similar games to this. Probably the best game I saw was when things just weren’t working. Instead of getting frustrated, he just shut down those bits of his game and still managed to win comfortably. Unfortunately the 1980’s was probably when we saw squash at its peak and we are unlikely to see same level of talent again as there just isn’t enough players to push people to excel anymore. I’d love to be proved wrong here, but I think its going to take a huge resurgence in popularity to do it, and I can’t see that happening, at least not here in Australia anyway.

I'm not entirely familiar with the rules but I'll try. The ball can only bounce once. But (except in the serve) it can go off any of the 4 walls first. If they do get in each other's way, it's a "let", which is what happened in the first point. And the English player also appealed for it in the last point. The judges make a decision as to whether it's a deliberate block, accidental block or no block at all.

Rackets were indeed heavier in the 1980s during Jehangir's reign (160-180 gms?) -- but, as I recall, by the 90s (Jansher's reign) rackets were of similar weights to the typical rackets used by professionals today (125-135) But I add that Ramy has anticipation and volleying skills that are a class above all of his contemporaries (e.g. watch El Shorbagy play mostly ground strokes unless the ball is loose -- whereas Ramy is on the volley-attack at every opportunity)
i could agree you if the great khans were placed in same situation or ramy in that era. Hashim and roshan khan were also magicuan had amazing nicks. qamar zaman the wrong footed back court dropper wass another. But sometimes you cant judge with mastery and tricks.
Noman Bukhari Do you remember Qamar Zaman dropping his racket and hitting a dead nick with his hand!
I AGREE.
Egypt In Squash Like Brazil In Football .... This Is The Truth
Egypt in squash is way better than Brazil in football!!, at least nowadays, between the top ten guys in football I would say there is just one Brazilien (Neymar), 6 for Egypt in squash. In the last three World Championships Brazil just has reach a 4th position as their best performance, meanwhile Egyp has won 2 of the las 3 World Team Championships being finalist on the other
***** I know Pakistan dominated in the past, that is why i said nowadays
Pakistan dominated this game from 50s to late 90s so we can that Pakistan is the true Brazil of squash and Egypt in Belgium of squash (sessional) 😉😉😉
Brazil is the best country ever, end of story 😘
Mariana Costa Brazil is an underdeveloped country with favelas everywhere
I've been playing for 23 years and I have never seen anyone make the game seem to be so simple... Jeez Ramy can you be more relaxed when you play..... ;-)
9+12
Did i really just watched this on a work night at 3:00 AM?
i just watched this on a work night at 3:40. lovely sport.
try 6 am, 3 hours before an applied physics exam :)
This is too meta
4:34 am
1 AM - 2 days before all of my missing assignments are due in order to graduate highschool.
1:40 that's just brilliant...he's like Roger Federer in Tennis.
Textbook.
ame7272 hes better
roger like stebe rogers from avengers 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! edit:
federer plays squash as well, it's essentially a pseudosport although its good cardio
Gosh, Ramy is unbelievable!
Rami is an immortal legend in the world of squash💯❤
That Egyptian magician, what a legend! The British invented the game and the Egyptians mastered it!
Ahmed Abou-Shaaban i think Pakistani players have a much bigger legacy
Ahmed Mughal Pakistanis produces 2 amazing legends but Egyptian have had more than 20 amazing great players over the years
Ahmed Mughal The World number 1 rank in Men , Women , individual and teams including youth all belong to Egypt !
Ahmad Pakistan produced Hashim Khan, Qamar Zaman, Gogi Allaudin and jahngir and jansher Khan all of them have won at least 1 British Open. And three of them still hold the world records which no Egyptian have been able to beat
Hashim Khan was the first legend of squash
In a class by himself, Ramy is. Even if Willstrop was at full speed, most of those shots would have given him trouble, put him under serious pressure. I play that well sometimes, beating world top players 11-2. Then I wake up.
OMG that's incredible!!
ramy just nailed it , great player
He is a huge inspiration, to me and to the world. He is a amazing representative for squash, all the players are, and we will be in the Olympics in 2020. Lots of love for squash.
This didn't age well...
@@shakerbadawi9375 lol
PSA missed the boat....
Started playing squash again, just such a great sport
Joey : He's got to win the first game Ramy Ashour : 8 - 0
Unbelievable. The precision is unbelievable.
Ramy is awesome.
The era which great players don't wanna any strokes
The first play for me it's a stroke
First time seeing squash match LOL pretty impressive !!
Same
I think there's one in the description small print for the shop and there are several floating around for SquashTV! Hint: Player codes or SquashXtra...
that look at Malcom's face @3:42 says it all. Ramy is a great gentleman sportsman. he gave away that point to show some respect.
I'm pretty sure that hit the nick
+Imaad Said but look at that laziness from Ramy. it was intentional miss imo
Unbelievable squash by the artist
recommended never fails to impress
Well let me put it this way. This is the best game of squash I've ever seen him play.
Best player I've ever seen.....FACT
pretty sure this is the most viewed squash match/game on KZhead
By far!
2:22 everyones face while watching this sport lmao
If only he played like this in the Allam British Open 2014! (injuries) :(
What a great player
I had no idea this game was as difficult as it is ~~ I need to play!!!
speak italian
رامي عاشور ابن مصر الي مشرفنا❤️🌺
Congratulations on 2 Million views!!
Get loads of matches from the SquashTV shop and watch at your leisure! :)
What a magician!!
4:39 damn tgis is the best rally ever 👌❤ edit and the next one too 😂❤
Great player!
Something Al mighty Allah blessed Ramay with..... Its simple exclusive art of playing squash.
you are true he was blessed with something peculiar from the creator
Oh yess so true
Taking the squash up again brilliant game it is
It's not Ramy's best squash. As good as Wilstrop is, he's simply not in the same league as Ramy. I would nominate Ramy's 2014 El Gouna Classic win over Elshorbagy as some of the best squash ever played. It almost doesn't look like squash anymore--at least not the classic game played by Wilstrop et al.
It seem he play better against Mohamed just because ElShorbagy play at a higher pace than Willstrop, he play fast and furious so he can beat Ashour with power and pace and Ashour keep his pace so the game become superfast and full of winners, meanwhile Willstrop play at a slower rithym trying to slow Ashour pace so he can´t play winners and looking for create good ocasion with accurate shots and make Ramy do mistakes, but he is superb in his style when he is in form!!, the proof is how he beat Elshorbagy on the World Championship last year
With James height and Ramy's agility the game seems so easy to play. Step in, step out!
absolutely unbelievable
“Look how flexible he is here the way he arches his back”. Said the commentator with rigor Mortis
Ramy Ashour the GOAT of squash Pakistan no where for last 20 years
Ramys back hand tho is on fire
Agreed!
he's sick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love squash

رامي عاشور أسطورة 😍😍
more full (and free*) games, please!
Bro I was so confused at that first bit, then I realised they were just warming the ball up
Great first game !
The day squash moved forward from old school to new reality.
1:44( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° )
Increible señoras y señores, es el mejor jugador del mundo. Enh. Ashour
Squash is one of the best game in the world. Wish more people knew the importance of this game. If you play other games you remain fit but for squash, you need to be fit first.
Gud one
I wiki-ed the game like randomly and after reading rules came to youtube to see a practical. Well I think I accidentally watched the best match of the game.
Welcome! We’re sure it’ll hook you in just like it did to all of us! Maybe check out the ‘Editors Picks’ playlist on our homepage if you want to watch more, there’s some great stuff in there :🎉
@@squashtv It sure has did the magic for me. Also now I have decided that I will learn about one game every week.
I’m only here cause it was in my maths book
The commentators are really awesome.
Squash's Unhinged Lunatic - Charles Boyle
What an incredible shame Ramy can't stay healthy enough to have performances like this more often. He just skipped HK with an injury, gave up at the World Open with an injury, and retired from the US Open with an injury. And this has been happening for years. If this guy could just stay healthy, I shudder to think of the number of titles he'd have won by now. Hope he can lick this injury bug eventually.
I read somewhere he doesn't warm up as much as other pros
Ramy Ashour ♥
Awesome game
I think Federer would do well at this game with his amazing reflexes and sublime finesse.
goooooooooood ashor
Bring this RAMY Back
true
Mashallah this is true magic
Is it me or I just dont get these shots but it looks good, and as an badmiton player people confuse these sports and wow they are very different
Ramy knows when to smack and where and when to softly place the ball. James seemed to only just know how to smack during that game.
the artist ramy ashour with no mercy 😈
Can't be, just the one nick! ;)
You need to take into consideration the outdoor venue will make the ball play deader so coupled with James bring stiff from day before it makes sense it took him 3 mind plus to get going.
I wish they kept this layout of the court and on the front wall.
i feel like packing it in after that!!!
This is a perfect example of heavy legs after a 90+ minute match the day before. Nonetheless, to beat Willstrop 6 minutes is unheard of.
the office brought me here
Ashour the most exciting squash player ever in my opinion!
It’s easy to play great squash when the ball is played loose all the time and unfortunately a very tired Wilstrop wasn’t able to keep it anywhere near tight enough. The GOAT for me was without a doubt Jahangir. I have seen him play for hours up and down the wall keeping the ball so tight there really was no chance to attack, but I have also seen him play similar games to this. Probably the best game I saw was when things just weren’t working. Instead of getting frustrated, he just shut down those bits of his game and still managed to win comfortably. Unfortunately the 1980’s was probably when we saw squash at its peak and we are unlikely to see same level of talent again as there just isn’t enough players to push people to excel anymore. I’d love to be proved wrong here, but I think its going to take a huge resurgence in popularity to do it, and I can’t see that happening, at least not here in Australia anyway.
Beast
that rally at 4:38 - incredible.
5:55 I don't know if anyone noticed but the ball bounced twice before Ramy hit it. Is that legal?
Imo it first bounces once on the floor, then on the back glass, which looks very similar.
Princess Alexander, it bounced off the back wall. It's sometimes a bit hard to see from our angle when the ball is that low, but it happens very often. The opponent would have instantly called it if it was down. :-)
oh ok, I see it now
I’m here simply because, I just brought some Squash Shoes.
thanx and also, the rules are simply ball not hiting the ground twice?
Yes you can also hit it before it even touches the ground it's called volley
Ive watched this three times and still have no idea what is going on. Albeit, I am drunk and only here because I heard of a Lifeguard on the T.V show Bondi Rescue that injured himself playing this. I really just wanted to figure out what this is and as a Canadian, I am absolutely lost 🤣🤣
So the rule is that if the ball falls on the ground 2 times u lose point? Can someone explain the rules real quick, and also since they are in this small box isnt it a problem of them blocking eachother movement and vision on the ball
I'm not entirely familiar with the rules but I'll try. The ball can only bounce once. But (except in the serve) it can go off any of the 4 walls first. If they do get in each other's way, it's a "let", which is what happened in the first point. And the English player also appealed for it in the last point. The judges make a decision as to whether it's a deliberate block, accidental block or no block at all.
@@bazza2974 thanks mate
Maz Amd also, if the person is obstructing the ball, rather than the person, it's a stroke, and the point defaults to the other player.
How did this get in my stream and why did I just watch the whole thing?
A best game of squash would involve some sort of challenge to overcome in my opinion
James will strop a former world number 1 isn't exactly a typical round 1 opponent would you say?
The challenge was there alright..... it just didn't shine because Ashour for the 6 minutes was on another plane. Perhaps somewhere that will never be reached again. Just amazing.
lol got you
clearly the best!
Holy! 2 million views so fast!
727 points awarded for performing
His best game is against Elshorbagy at the retirement match ❤
WHAT A CHAMP, SUPERB CONTROL THIS GUY WTF
