Hi Narendra,

When we play in a match we often get a little tighter in our muscles.  This will cause your arm to swing a little slower.  Try to focus on keeping relaxed in a match and see i this helps.  We also have a lesson on how to Recognise Your Feelings that will help you.

Building Block 5: Develop Game Skills with Match Drills

The fifth building block of table tennis is using match drills to simulate real-game situations. Match drills start with a serve and return, creating a practice environment that closely mirrors actual gameplay.

Within these drills, you can focus on specific skills, such as executing topspin against backspin. Incorporating match drills into your training helps you transition your practice into competitive play, building confidence and readiness for real matches.

To develop this building block the following video on match drill routines will be extremely helpful.
