If I try to hit a smash or counter it goes so fast but it gets out of the table. How to keep it in the table? I hit that much fast that I can't control the ball and it goes out of the table.

Hi Vinayak,

The important thing is to add a little topspin.  The topspin helps to get the ball to dip onto to the table, especially when it is travelling fast.
