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.

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.
