Strokes

Hi Coach,
Whenever I play my forehand topspin against my friends, the ball always misses the table and my opponent gets the point
so how can i prevent this?

Hi Adheesh,
Take a look at the lesson on the Forehand Topspin Against Block. This will show you the best way to play the stroke correctly.
Curiously, I think the most important factor of the stroke is the finish position.
