Hi Muhammad,

Yes after the serve you can move anywhere around the table, even onto the opponents side of the net as long as you don't interfere with the opponent.

Doubles Serving Rules

In this video we go over the somewhat complicated rules of serving for doubles in table tennis. There are a couple of extra rules for doubles that you don't apply to singles. In doubles you always serve from the right hand box diagonally to your opponent's right hand box. Each player has 2 serves each. If you've just been receiving then it's your turn to serve next.

Sorry Muhammad, the ball can go off the side of the table.  It does not have to go off the end of the table where the player is standing.  Did I get the meaning this time?

I guess Awais is asking if we can serve on either side of the middle white line.
