Hi Shaant,
Hitting a backhand smash is not a shot that we recommend. You will notice that most top players very rarely play a backhand smash. That is because if the ball is high enough, they get around and make a forehand smash.
If the ball is up a little higher in the backhand side you can play a Backhand Topspin like in this lesson.

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.
