Training
While practicing stroke I find myself quite comfortable executing my backhand. But during game when my opponent blocks , or drive on my backhand I find my backhand return stuck to the net most often.
Hi Pradeep,
Often when it gets to a game situation the main difference is that you don’t know where the ball is coming.
In training, start to do some more random drills where you don’t know where the ball is coming part of the time.
Take a look at our Training Drills free download and look for the Random Drills that you can practice.
Take some time to understand what are the weaknesses of one of your fiercest competitors. Once you know what they are you should design specific drills to help you exploit these weaknesses. Watch the video to find out how.

I think to watch the opponent ( a glance ) allows to know better where the ball arrive
Hi Martinand,
I don't think it's a great idea to glance at your opponent. If you do this it's hard to look back and track the ball. If you focus solely on the ball then you'll react quicker and with your peripheral vision you'll still pick up all the information you need about your opponent.
