Hi Il,

It is a small backhand block where I am putting a little topspin on the ball as the bat is going upwards.

Take a look at the lesson on the Backhand Block.

Anticipation

How is it that a player can always seem to get back those extremely fast topspins? Is it their incredible anticipation? The key to good anticipation actually lies in tracking the ball well. When you watch the ball closely your peripheral vision will pick up your opponents movements and with lots of practice those signs will help you anticipate what your opponent is going to do. This happens naturally with lots of experience. So it it your job to ensure that you are tracking the ball really carefully.

Not for the simple block.  Just a little movement up with the bat.
