Hi Alois

I play an opponent very often and he does deep chops only but when im receiving them they hit the side of the racquet. Can you tell me a solution?

Thanks

Hi Nishant,

Try to close the angle of your racket a bit.  You may have the racquet too flat.  Face it more to the net.  Also the ball may be bouncing lower than you think, because of the amount of backspin on the ball so watch it carefully in flight.

Banana Flick

The banana flick has become one of the most important returns in table tennis. It allows you to attack almost any short ball and places your opponent under immediate pressure. Still it is a difficult stroke that takes a lot of practice to master.
