During a decider set in doubles if a player reaches 5 side changes .... does the combination change too?

Hi Utkarsh,

Yes the combination does change.  The way we do this is that the receivers change.  So if I was meant to return the next serve, my partner would now return.

Hitting the Ceiling

When the ball hits the ceiling the point is over. You must hit the ball directly back onto the table otherwise you lose the point. In International tournaments the roof needs to be at least 5 metres above the playing surface but in local competitions you might often encounter much lower ceilings.
