HI Somshekar,

You need to watch the contact of the bat on the ball when your opponent is hitting it. Then try to determine the direction the ball will spin. If it has sidespin it will spin to the side. To counteract that sidespin you need to angle your bat away from the direction that the ball will spin. If the ball wants to go to the right then angle your bat so that it is facing to the left.

Crossover Footwork

When you need to reach that really wide ball the regular shuffle step just won't get you there in time so you need to use the crossover step. This is essentially a running action to get you to the ball as fast as possible.
