Hi Karthick,
If you are having a lot of problem blocking with the short pimples it may be worth login to an inverted rubber for a while till you get better feel for the stroke. It is easier to block with the inverted.
Take a look at the tutorial on the Backhand Block to make sure you have the technique correct as well.
