Hi Krishna,

If the ball is high enough to smash then you should get around on the forehand and make the smash.  The backhand smash can be quite risky.

Take a look at the lesson we have on the Forehand Smash.  This will help.  Make sure you are moving well into position before you make the stroke.  A common error I find is that players forget to move their feet while the ball is in the air.
