Hi Amrit,
To receive no spin or topspin serves that are long and fast, the best idea is to take half a step back from the table and topspin these back. Because they are long, you should have a chance to attack them.
Being back form the table will give you a little more time to cover the wider fast balls.

Judging the Length of a Serve
A really important skill in table tennis is to be able to judge if a serve will be short or long. If it's short you won't be able to take a full swing at the ball and hence will need to use either a push or a flick to return the ball. However, if it is coming long then you can make a topspin attack. In this video we give you some tips to help you judge the length of the serve and hopefully this makes you a better returner.
