I play topspin on his every ball but he blocks because he is a good defender so what I can do now.

Hi Ali,

Try to mix up the speed and spin on your attacks.  You can then also think about changing the placement.  This will make it more difficult for them to adjust to your attacks.

As part of our Premium membership we also have a lesson on Playing A Blocker that will help.
