Hi Vibhor,

The counterhit in table tennis is used against a flat ball.  You use it to place the ball and you can also hit the ball fast as long as you have a little topspin on the ball.

It is a very safe reliable stroke.

Counter Topspin from Mid Distance

If you are an aggressive player you still will have times when your opponent attacks first. In these situations you can try to counter attack and this is easier if you are a step back from the table. In this video we teach you how to recognise when to take that step back and how to do it. Hopefully this will get you into a good position to make that counter topspin. Good luck!
