First Of All Because Of Your Videos I Have Learned How To Play Many Shots But I Cant Play these Shots (Backhand Counterhit And Backhand Sidespin Flick)

Hi Aditya,

The Backhand counterhit is one of the strokes that are really important to master.

Take a look especially at the start and finish positions of the stroke in our lesson on the Backhand Counterhit.

The Sidespin flick is a harder stroke and may be something you can experiment with now but don’t spend too much time on it till you have the basics really solid.

Anticipation

How is it that a player can always seem to get back those extremely fast topspins? Is it their incredible anticipation? The key to good anticipation actually lies in tracking the ball well. When you watch the ball closely your peripheral vision will pick up your opponents movements and with lots of practice those signs will help you anticipate what your opponent is going to do. This happens naturally with lots of experience. So it it your job to ensure that you are tracking the ball really carefully.
