Rules
What if the opponent got very angry and he gave such a smash that it squeezed the ball then whose point it would be.
Hi Rudaroop,
It is almost impossible with a competition level ball to hit it and make is squish.
The bat may crack however. If this happens in the middle of a point and it effects the rally the umpire will call a let and play the point again.
When the ball hits the ceiling the point is over. You must hit the ball directly back onto the table otherwise you lose the point. In International tournaments the roof needs to be at least 5 metres above the playing surface but in local competitions you might often encounter much lower ceilings.
