HY! I can do a very good serve and most of my friends cannot return due to a lot of side spin.

Only a few weeks have passed, now i cannot add the spin i want to add on the ball. I bought my new racket a few months back. Is it happening due the pendulum serve or i have to clean it properly.

Hi Maaz,

Try just wiping the bat with a damp sponge.  This is all you need to do to clean the rubber.  If it still isn't gripping the ball then the rubber is probably dead and needs replacing.  A rubber can die due to a lot of hitting or spinning like the serves but it is usually just a general wear from use or keeping out in the heat or dust.

Tone is in Your Fingers

There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!
