If anyone hit a fast counter shot or any other shot I can't defend it. If I touch the ball it goes out of the table.

Hi Vinayak,

If they play a fast shot the main thing is to have a relaxed hand and control the ball on the table with a                    Block if you can.

However, take a look at this tutorial in our Basic Tactics section on I Can't Return That Smash!.
