i use a medium fast racket (joola express rubber on both side). what angle i should use during top spin shot? i some time tilt it from forward and side spin also come with topspin but by this it is difficult to hit top spin against a very high back spin.

Hi Archit,

Think about turning your wrist back more.  SO thin about it like you are trying to touch the back of your hand to your wrist.  This will straighten up your wrist and get the ball going straighter.

The other thing to do is focus on the curve on the ball and get the ball to go straight or even curve the other way by relaxing your wrist and experimenting with the angles.  Often this is a trail and error situation but a good way to learn.
