Could you show how to use the backhand-side-flick for penhold?

Hi Sandesh,

This is quite a natural stroke once you get the feel for it because the bat is at the right angle to make the stroke.  Follow the same principles as we show you in the lesson on the Backhand Sidespin Flick.

Fake Movements

After the ball has left the server's bat, they can no longer affect the spin that is on the ball. Any movements after the contact are referred to as fake movements and are meant to confuse you as the receiver. You need to focus on the contact to read the spin.
