Hi Aida,

This is common.  The reason you play better against better opponents is that you play without being scared or worrying about the result.  However once you start to play players of a similar or lower level you are starting to worry about the result.

Take a look at Jeff's comments in a previous question titled Table Tennis Nerves. It is very relevant to what you are feeling and asking about.
