One of my friend makes a topspin with some sidespin I can block the attack but i am not able to block it to his backhand it always goes to forehand as i am a penholder what should i do to counter his forehand sidespin attack 

thanks

Hi Nikhil,

To make it go to his backhand it is easier to use your backhand.  This will give you the easier angle to hit it over to that side of the table.  So next time, step over and use you backhand block and angle it over there.

Push it forward towards his backhand.  Hit the ball quite flat.
