Sir, which strokes can play to get low, backspin balls over the net?

Hi Urbish,

If the ball is low with backspin the easiest response is a push.  This will allow you to get under the ball and keep the ball low back over the net.

You can push the ball back short or long depending on what is most effective against the player you are playing against.

Slow to Fast Progression

It's important to practice your shots slowly to get the correct technique. That will lead you to being able to hit the ball faster. You do need to practice these faster shots in training before using them in a match.

And also once you've advanced, you can start trying to topspin these balls when they are long.
