Hi Haseeb,

The rubber won't be the problem.

Focus on getting the start and finish positions correct with your topspin strokes.  These are the key factors initially.  If you get that right, you have a good chance to make the stroke accurate and effective.

To return a topspin, think about the block first but then you can add a little topspin on the block to get it more effective.  Don't try to do too much with it.  Just add a little topspin and then work up from there.

When you need to reach that really wide ball the regular shuffle step just won't get you there in time so you need to use the crossover step. This is essentially a running action to get you to the ball as fast as possible.
