Hi Qamar,
I think the first step is to work on technique and your strokes. Take a look through the lessons on the Strokes & Techniques page of the site.
Then you can think about doing some formal training. Try to find a partner to train with. We have a set of Training drills that you can work through. It is a free download. Training Drills. Look through them and pick out some drills that you think will help. Start with the simple drills and work your way through. Later you can think about a Premium membership where you will be able to access the Training Secrets lessons. These show you the drills and how to use them best. It also shows you how to set out your training session and gives you a set of 52 weeks of Training Plans that you can work through. This is a good investment if you are thinking about training regularly.

#12 - Defensive Technique
Although attacking is the most popular style at the top level in Table Tennis, it is important to be able to defend well. If you choose to play a defensive style then you should be practicing these strokes all the time. If you play an attacking stroke then you should still try and find some time for these strokes. If you can win one extra point by defending well when pressured, it could make the difference between winning and losing.
