Hi Dinu,

We call this the Wobbly shot.

You are basically doing a sidespin chop from below the table level.  Brush across the ball to generate the sidespin.  It becomes more difficult for your opponent because they can't see the contact because it is below the table level.

In this video we talk about the position of your legs, weight transfer, varying the finish position, incorporating footwork, the use of your wrist, and the angle of your bat for the stroke.
