Hi Nsri,

The backspin on  the ball is dragging the ball into the net.  You need to allow for the backspin.  Open the angle of your bat while you are making the stroke.

When you need to reach that really wide ball the regular shuffle step just won't get you there in time so you need to use the crossover step. This is essentially a running action to get you to the ball as fast as possible.
