Hi Alois and Jeff, is it legal if you accidentaly hit the ball with your thumb in your forehand or your index finger with your backhand?

Hi Joshua,

Yes now it is legal to do this.  If the ball hits anywhere up to your wrist it is still a good hit.  Now it can even hit both the finger and the bat and go over and be a good hit as long as it is unintentional.

You have to have the bat in your hand and the ball can only hit your hand once.  This is quite difficult.
