Coach, is it possible to put sidespin on a flick? If yes, how can it be done? Is it advisable to put sidespin on the flick?

Hi JM,

Initially just stick to the flat flick.  The sidespin adds to the risk.

It is possible by titlting your bat on an angle and then playing the ame stroke.  If you want to just experiment with it.

Strawberry Flick

The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
