Hi Raviteja,
If you watch the ball very carefully you will get the best information as to where the ball is coming. Try to be in a neutral position before your opponent hits the ball and then by watching the ball you will be able to react as fast as possible to which side the ball is coming.

Backhand Topspin Against Block
We delve into the essential techniques for executing a consistent backhand topspin against a block. We cover three critical aspects:
- Foot Position: Ensuring a stable and balanced stance to facilitate quick movements.
- Start Position: Positioning your racket and body correctly to initiate the stroke effectively.
- Finish Position: Completing the stroke in a way that prepares you for the next shot.
Additionally, we discuss how to adjust your bat angle if the ball goes long, emphasizing the importance of maintaining the same start and finish positions without coming across your body.
