Ball Break

Aasim Showkat Asked 12 years ago

Hi Alois,

Firstly I wanna thank you for the lesson on pendulum backspin serve. it's very good serve and I confuse my friends.

Secondly i wanna ask you that If during a rally, the ball breaks due to which ball does not bounce correctly and I failed to return that. In this situation did I loose a point or not?

Hi Aasim,

Officially it would be a point unless during the rally the umpire notices it and calls a let.  Usually though in that situation the players would agree to replay the point.
