Hi Coach,
I want to ask what is the difference between Backhand Flick and Backhand Sidespin Flick (Banana Flick)? What are thier advantages.
Hi Tushar,
The sidespin flick is a more complex shot but in a way can be easier against a backspin ball. It is a more difficult shot to return as well. I guess that is why it has become so popular.
In this video we will discuss and demonstrate how you can generate a brushing contact on the ball. A brushing contact is ideal for creating as much spin as possible during a rally.

Which could be best against heavy sidespin?

You can try to brush over the top of the ball, i.e. a topspin flick. This should be not hard to do, since you're avoiding the spin in this case.
