I played table tennis with the techniques given. But the ball hits my finger while playing backhand shot.

Hi Aniket,
First make sure that our finger is staying down low on the rubber. A good guide is to always be able to feel the writing at the bottom on the rubber.
If you are doing this and it is still hitting your finger, then try to focus on the ball better. It may just be that you are not watching the ball closely enough. Focus especially on the contact point and try to make it as simple as possible in the centre of the racket.

Stop Coming Back to Ready Position! Do This Instead…
Most players are told to always return to the ready position after every stroke but that might be hurting your game. In this video, we reveal a smarter way to recover:
✔ Track the ball immediately after your shot
✔ Move your racket into position for the next shot instead of blindly resetting
✔ Improve your timing, balance, and flow during rallies
Whether you’re a beginner or advanced player, understanding this subtle change can have a big impact on your consistency and speed around the table.
