Hi,

I just want to know that in a match how many times i can do reserve. Like In a match my opponent's serve hit the net 3 times. Is it legal to reserve many times?

Hi Prajjwal,

If you make a mistake with your serve, that is you serve a fault, you lose the point straight away.

However if you serve a let, that is where the ball touches the net and still goes on correctly, you never lose a point, even if you serve 10 or 20 lets in a row.

I hope this clears the rule up for you.
