Hi Simon,
You should aim to get back to a fairly neutral position but it is difficult to have enough time to get back to a fully neutral position.
The best idea is to follow the ball through the rally. This will mean that you may not get back to the ready position but you will be in a good position for the next ball.
Another important factor is that when you hit the ball you need to be in a stable position. If you are still moving it will take longer to get to a stopped position and then be able to move to the next ball. So there should be movement, stop, hit the ball and then movement to the next ball.
