Short pips players giving me trouble

Hi!

This is about playing against short pips. These guys tend to smash when least expected - even on considerable amount of backspin, and never seem to miss! Do you have any videos on how to play against the short pips? Will help immensely. Thanks!

Hi Prateek,

Work with topspin rather than speed and you will find that it will be more difficult for them to smash.  You can also use backspin.  If you can keep the ball low enough they will not be able to smash.

We are making a Match Strategy Course that will include a lesson on how to play against pimples.
