Hi Agha,

The block takes a lot of touch to be able to make it on the table.  Firstly don't try to do too much.  Let the ball come to you and then use the angle of your racket to guide the ball back.  Make sure you are contacting the ball when it is still higher than the net.

Practice this shot during training.  Get your partner to topspin to you consistently to one side and try to get the ball back consistently.  then you can get them to topspin to the other side and do the same.

Forehand Topspin Variations

A great weapon is being able to vary the amount of speed and spin on your forehand topspin stroke. By making your stroke more vertical and brushing the ball finely, you can generate more spin. For more speed you need to swing more horizontally.

Ithink it's very important to be relax, and a grip very lax
