Love the fact that you included the Tamimi rally even though Nick didn't win the point. Shows respect and acknowledgement for the talent and effort from both players, no matter the outcome. Bravo SquashTV.
@@PatrickCuba8 there was a double handed player named Rasmus Hult who plays it the same way as Matthew and Tamimi. I've seen him done it against Castagnet a few years back.
Miss nick matthew but i feel like this list is poor. there was lots of rallies that could’ve been in this list. Matthew rosner canary wharf, elshorbagy matthew british open 2014 etc just to name a few
Nothing from Nick vs James Canary warf 2010? Nothing from Nick vs Shorbagy from British Open 2012 or Nick vs Ramy or Nick v Gautier? I can easily come up with 10 rallies off the top of my head. Not a very good list. Expect more PSA
It’s effectively a lob. You play it just like you would lob the ball off the front wall. It always looks like a bit of a more powerful shot on PSA, that’s because you should only play it if there are no other options available - just to bring back the ball. Hence the extra power - usually played under extreme pressure, the players need to make the strike quick

Tamini and Nick are the only two I have seen play a trickle boast like this czcams.com/video/CS0VbfY_qZs/video.html

@@ngzijian14 oh the weird swede, never seen a double handed player in squash... squash competition in Sweden must be tough!
@@PatrickCuba8 actually you'll be surprise to find out one of the squash legends, Peter Marshall formal world no.2 plays double handed as well!
The absolute master of grinding the rally out
I always push back at the idea that Matthew grinded rallies out. He was an attacking player that looked to volley and use a high pace to win rallies.
A true master
@@inghell I agree he was an attacking player but also a master of the grind. having both attributes is perhaps why he was so good?
Miss ya Wolf. What a legend!
The way that he is able to consistently maintain quality throughout all of these long rallies is epic.
There were a few legendary rallies between Matthew and Shabana too.
That lob on rally 5 is magic
lots of classic rallies missing especially some i remember with Ramy and Gaultier
Legend
That Gawad really certainly didn't belong in there

Make that list and post it here
Surprised there weren't any vs Ramy at El Gouna too
I agree. Poor list. I would maybe include the last rally in a top ten but it wouldn't even make my top 5.
Nice
What about the Ramy Matthew rally where Joey says "This is... astounding squash..."
If I could describe Matthew in one rally it’d be the one against Mohammed at the end

Can someone please help me on how to hit that shot?
Saad, are you referring to the back wall boast? Or Nick's wide cross-court?
You've got to hit it upwards, give it some height.

@@arnaud78 I was referring to the shot by Ashour
@@63off thanks man!
Don't think any player ever commanded the T as well as Nick Matthew.
Gaultier
@@ScobedRobed Yeah, you're right .
