Hello Sir,

 Coach this is a very important question I want answered correctly,

Coach one of my friend has very weak backhand. When I hit ball on his backhand area he pushes on the middle of the table and short, how do I attack that ball. Please suggest any Attacking Stroke. He is able to hit all my flicks. How do I attack that ball on his backhand area.

Please coach tell me what I do.

Hi Devansh,

Instead I would try to develop your short push game off this ball.  If he is ready for your flick then by playing the ball shorter you may throw him off balance.  You could even try to push long at first and see how that works.
