I saw this video on the news the other day.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6L5EUfAolk (btw it's a 2 year old video, but the news channels just picked it up now!)Who won the point?I'd assume the guy in red because the other guy didn't touch the ball, but some people in the comments are saying the umpire is giving the score to the server but the video gets cut off before we can see.Can you please clarify the rule here?

Hi Beauford,

This is the receiver’s point because the server doesn’t touch the ball.

Doubles Serving Rules

In this video we go over the somewhat complicated rules of serving for doubles in table tennis. There are a couple of extra rules for doubles that you don't apply to singles. In doubles you always serve from the right hand box diagonally to your opponent's right hand box. Each player has 2 serves each. If you've just been receiving then it's your turn to serve next.
