Kreanga play a fast topspin stroke. Take a look at our lesson on the Backhand Topspin Against Block. Then to increase speed, you can start to get your bat to move through the stroke faster. Kreanga has an amazing ability to move his arm through really fast. That is how he generates so much speed and power.
