Strokes
How can I hit a backhand smash when the ball is quite short?
Hi Abhinav,
If the ball is high then you can step forward and lean over the table a little to make the smash.
If the ball is ow then it is best to play a topspin stroke.

A snake shot is a type of stroke which is specifically used against a drop shot. It is usually loaded with a heavy spin so that the opponent finds it difficult to counter. The type of spin can be backspin, sidespin or topspin depending on your choice. You need to make a movement after hitting the ball to confuse your opponent.
