Hello coach,i have a problem whenever i do a forehand shot it always goes to the forehand of the opponent and not backhand due to which he can always predict my forehand shots and return it.  Can u suggest a solution ?

Thank You

Hi Aravind,

To change the direction of the ball you can do two things.  You can just change the angle of your wrist or you can hit the ball a little later to get the ball to go down the line.  You don't need to make a big change to get the ball to go to different positions.

Strawberry Flick

The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
