Recovery
Strategy
Kaustubh Kulkarni Asked 11 years ago
I can't recover for the next stroke when I play a stroke, especially flicks. I get paused at the end position. Please tell me how to recover for the next stroke. Do you have any drills to practice recovery?

Hi Kaustubh,
This is something that you can practice. Follow the ball carefully and you will start to react naturally to the next ball.
When you start to learn a stroke you focus on the movements of the stroke and so you are thinking about getting to the finish position. Once you become comfortable with the stroke you can start to focus on the rally in full and watching the ball. This will help with your recovery.
