Hi Hammad,

As a basic guide look at the spin and speed ratings.  If you are a fsat flat hitting player or blocker go with something that is a little faster.  If you are a topspin type player go for a rubber with a higher spin rating and a little slower blade.  The slower blade will allow the ball to sink into the bat a little better and get better lift.  The really fast blades will  not keep the ball for long enough to allow the rubber to work its magic.
