Hi Batuhan,
When someone punches the ball to you make sure you stay relaxed as you can. Put some topspin on the ball to get it to dip back down onto the table. You don't need to hit the ball hard but lift it with good topspin.

Anticipation
How is it that a player can always seem to get back those extremely fast topspins? Is it their incredible anticipation? The key to good anticipation actually lies in tracking the ball well. When you watch the ball closely your peripheral vision will pick up your opponents movements and with lots of practice those signs will help you anticipate what your opponent is going to do. This happens naturally with lots of experience. So it it your job to ensure that you are tracking the ball really carefully.
