HI Shrihari,

The angle of the racket comes through at around 45 degrees but this changes depending on the type of ball that comes in.  Ma Long uses a very fast swing so he can come over the ball more than the average players.

Anticipation

How is it that a player can always seem to get back those extremely fast topspins? Is it their incredible anticipation? The key to good anticipation actually lies in tracking the ball well. When you watch the ball closely your peripheral vision will pick up your opponents movements and with lots of practice those signs will help you anticipate what your opponent is going to do. This happens naturally with lots of experience. So it it your job to ensure that you are tracking the ball really carefully.
