Hi Swaroop,

Firstly congratulations on your selection.

I think the 3rd ball tactic is important to improve your game.  The placement of the 3rd ball depends on each opponent you play.  You can go wide against a player that doesn't move well.  Try different positions for your 3rd ball against each opponent and see which works.

Tactics Against A Defensive Chopper

A chopper likes to get back from the table and get into a nice rhythm. If you keep the defender close to the table in the early part of the rally, it's hard for them to transition back into their chopping position. So keep the ball short on your serve and try and catch them unprepared. Watch the video to find out more great tactics to use against a defensive chopper.

its important to know what you are going to serve..what spin you are doing...so that u can be ready and set up a 3rd ball attack...it will be foolish to serve a loose ball and then you loop in your 3rd ball.....
