How To Play Against A Long Pimples Player

Tanay Verma Asked 13 years ago

Hey coach!!

In my tt class my sir's daughter has a tibhar grass rubber in her backhand.

It gives a very odd effect on the ball..... i really get confused while playing against her.....

if i give her a chop in forehand she hits a smash (i dont know how??)

what should i do in such a case??
