Problem faced when opponent lobs

Strokes

Hi coach,

As the title says when my opponent lobs the ball I can't hit the ball consistently and it just annoys me when my opponent takes the point during such situation. I mostly lose the point when the lobbed ball hits the table on the third line and I'm forced a bit away from the table. Please help me with this problem.

Thank you

I too have problem against players who lob more. They give high balls and smash- they lob... This goes on continouosly. Then I get tired after smashing and smashing and lose the point. When I play a drop shot they come near the table running and again give high ball or punch the ball  very fast.

Please give me advice to play with such players.
