Hi Gogo,
Step close to the ball by putting your right leg under the table. Then use the Backhand Push or the Forehand Flick stroke to handle that type of ball.
If his shot has backspin then the Push is the easier option. If the short ball has no spin or topspin, then use the Flick.

Stop Coming Back to Ready Position! Do This Instead…
Most players are told to always return to the ready position after every stroke but that might be hurting your game. In this video, we reveal a smarter way to recover:
✔ Track the ball immediately after your shot
✔ Move your racket into position for the next shot instead of blindly resetting
✔ Improve your timing, balance, and flow during rallies
Whether you’re a beginner or advanced player, understanding this subtle change can have a big impact on your consistency and speed around the table.
