The serve he did wasn't a let or not even a warning, but immediately gave Ma long a point. You can hear the umpire say 'foul' or something similar

It's in chinese so i can't understand what is going on here.

Hi Aaron,

The umpire calls "Fault".  I think it is because he doesn't remove his left hand from the area between the ball and the net.

The service rules requires a player to remove their arm from that area so that the receiver can see the contact of the ball.

Touching the Table

Are you allowed to touch the table during play? The only thing that isn't allowed to touch the table is your free hand. You leg, elbow, playing hand, and even your bat are allowed to. You are not allowed to move the table however.
