Hi Saiful,

Receiving serves takes a while because they have so many options.

However, try to keep the task simple.  If they serve long think about making a topspin stroke with either your forehand or backhand.

There are plenty of ideas in our Serving and Receiving section of the site.  Take a look through and see what you can improve.
