Hi Soumyadev,

You are allowed to hit the ball with your racket or your playing hand up to your wrist.  If the ball touches your arm then it your opponent's point.

You are allowed to move past the net but you can't interfere with your opponents.

Touching the Table

Are you allowed to touch the table during play? The only thing that isn't allowed to touch the table is your free hand. You leg, elbow, playing hand, and even your bat are allowed to. You are not allowed to move the table however.
