Hi Vineeth,

If the ball is short then push it back short to them.  If you can improve this area of your game you will start to create opportunities for yourself to attack.  When pushing the sidespin you need to angle your bat to the side slightly to allow for the sidespin.  Don't try to do too much with the ball just angle the racket for the best effect.

The Push in Detail

The humble push does not sound like an exciting stroke but it is one of the most important shots in Table Tennis. Having a great short push can be the difference between being an average player and being a great player. Make sure you allocate the appropriate amount of practice to mastering the push.
