Hi Aishik,
I think the key for you is to vary the speed of your topspin against the chop ball. You have the variation of spin, speed and placement to work with. If you can vary these things then it makes it a lot more difficult for them to counter that ball.
For help on nervousness during a tournament the key is your arousal levels. Take a look through our Sports Psychology section for more help on this area.

Berry v Datta
Shibaji Datta is a hot favourite in this match up against the unusual style of Brian Berry who loves to mix the game up with some great defensive play and some whippy forehand attacks.
