Hi Roger,

I think that making a sidespin back is one of the easiest ways to deal with it.  Take a look at our lesson on the Sidespin Forehand Topspin.  In there Jeff is blocking the ball.  You can do this but you need to allow for the sidespin by angling your bat slightly.  So if the ball is going to spin off to your left, you need to face the bat to the right and vice versa.

The banana flick has become one of the most important returns in table tennis. It allows you to attack almost any short ball and places your opponent under immediate pressure. Still it is a difficult stroke that takes a lot of practice to master.
