Can we do a smash in every ball & how?
Hi Ayush,
I think it is best to play a smash only when the ball is around shoulder height or higher. If the ball is lower than that you are going to make a risky stroke if you try to smash it. You are better to make a topspin on those types of balls.
This match show cases Michael Huang, a two winged looper up against Maggie Meng, a short pimpled penholder who likes to use the reverse penhold backhand with long pimples. In the match you'll get to see how the tactics used by each player shape the match.

Yes and with a topspin you can hit the ball very hard even if it is quite low since the topspin causes the ball to dip down. Take a look at our video Forehand Topspin Against Block to see what I'm talking about.
