Hi Mohamed,

To start with you can use more forearm.  As you get comfortable with this then you can start to use more wrist.

Slow to Fast Progression

It's important to practice your shots slowly to get the correct technique. That will lead you to being able to hit the ball faster. You do need to practice these faster shots in training before using them in a match.
