sir,

I have been following your videos for a long time and i really admire your hard work.The help that i got from the videos is just amazing.

I have one problem..when i practice the strokes like forehand backhand etc they are almost ok but when i try to implement them in a match then i always mistime and i never really get them right.  the forehands which are good during practice are really awful in match.  they never go right.  so what should i do

Hi Manvindar,

You need to persever with the strokes.  Forget about th result of some of your practice matches and make sure that during these matches you are still making the strokes correctly.

You will find that you wiil start to feel more comfortable playing your strokes correctly during a match and you will start to trust the strokes. 

It takes time and effort but you will be able to do it.

Anticipation

How is it that a player can always seem to get back those extremely fast topspins? Is it their incredible anticipation? The key to good anticipation actually lies in tracking the ball well. When you watch the ball closely your peripheral vision will pick up your opponents movements and with lots of practice those signs will help you anticipate what your opponent is going to do. This happens naturally with lots of experience. So it it your job to ensure that you are tracking the ball really carefully.
