Serving to Antispin rubber

I face a lot of trouble while playing against opponents using anti-spin rubber. I am still unable to figure out the best serve that can be thrown at them - because whatever serve I do they will either have the same or magnified effect of the spin that I put on it or it will be nullified or will be reversed. I want to know that what is the best serve that can be given to them ?

Hi Sutirtha,

I find the best serve is a backspin serve to the antispin. I know this will come back with some topspin which is a ball that I can attack.

Some players like to serve topspin to them so that they get a backspin ball that they can topspin. I think the most difficult thing is if you have to much sidespin on the ball. This will give you an awkward third ball.
