	Squash (sport) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Squash is an indoor racquet sport which was, until recently, called "Squash Rackets", a reference to the 'squashable' soft ball used in the game (compared with the harder ball used in its parent game Racquets or Rackets--see below).
		Highly-skilled players will attempt to finish rallies by hitting the ball at an angle onto the front wall and into the 'nick' (the junction between the side wall and floor), causing the ball to roll along the floor and be unreturnable.
		Squash now has a universal appeal, as there are courts in 148 countries in the world from Argentina to Zambia.

		Some former squash players, whom I talked on the subject, were of the opinion that it was sheer hard work and their dedicated determination that helped them become adroit in their game.
		A few, themselves players from Nawakilli, even went so far as to suggest that the determining force was the drinking water from Bara (near Peshawar) and the salan and roti (curry and bread), constituting their meals, that made them outstanding as compared to other squash players of the world.
		Firstly, it was the coaching of Nasrullah Khan, or Naz as he was commonly known in the squash sphere, and secondly, it was Barrington’s strenuous fitness schedule that set him apart from the rest of the top players in the sixties and the early seventies.

		Khan, a former British junior champion, has opted to play for Pakistan on the international circuit and although Pakistan have not entered any women into the Commonwealth Games Carla is hopeful of being able to play in the Asian and SAF Games coming up in the next year.

		Khan earlier had won his case in the Services Tribunal, which ordered his reinstatement as General Manager Sports PIA, but the army put its foot down and ordered, in clear violation of rules, not to let him back on the job.
		Suffering from a double hernia in childhood, Khan strived against many odds to stamp his claim as squash's most successful and dominating player since the sport was first introduced at Harrow school in England in 1830.
		Khan is regularly invited to high-profile events in other countries, and two years ago he was the chief guest at the British Open squash championships.

		Jehangir Khan's mind was finally made up after he was booted out of the national carrier, Pakistan International Airlines (PIA), where he had been employed as general manager of sports, later downgraded to general manager of squash.
		But Pakistan's military decision-makers insist that for cost-cutting reasons Khan's sacking from the state-owned airline was inevitable, and that his publicity and commercial value was negligible as he no longer plays squash.
		Khan is regularly invited to high-profile events in other countries, and last year he presented the prizes at the British Open squash championships.

		Hashim Khan may have believed in himself to be the best squash player in the world.
		It is necessary to harbour such beliefs if only to have a chance, a crack, at the good life.As a professional, dependent on the game for his bread and butter, Hashim's expertise may well have extended to the realms of the hypemaster.
		In the typical cut and thrust of Nuakilli's squash politics, Jahangir has dethroned the legendary Hashim, and now himself faces a possible dethroning at the hands of Jansher Khan in three to four years time, life and injury permitting.
