Playing a good pusher

Abhinav Basu Asked 10 years ago

hi, I have a table tennis tournament day after tomorrow. I have made my plans to defeat anyone but I have a problem. One of my friends, who is also in the tournament is a great player. My problem is that whenever I chop the ball, he also chops the ball and the chopping goes on and on and at last most of the times I lose the point and if by mistake I give even a little high ball he smashes it at a speed which I cannot defend. So what can I do in this situation. Please reply me as fast as possible. Thanks in advance.

Hi Abhinav,

The best thing would be to make the attack earlier in the rally.  If you wait too long in the rally it is more difficult to get into a position to make an attacking ball.
