rajeev bhalerao Asked 11 years ago
Dear Alois Sir
Pl let me know -- If the ball touches my finger or wrist (but not the racket ) and falls in the opponents side who will win the point & also while serving if the ball touches my finger who will win the point.
Thanks
Rajeev

Hi Rajeeev,
Up to the wrist is considered to be part of the bat. So if it hits your finger or hand and goes back it is your point while serving or in the rally.

You lose the point. Only up to the wrist is considered part of the bat.

If the ball hits my finger and then after touching the bat goes to the opp side and the opponent is unable to return, whoose point is it?

Yours, if the ball your finger then the bat during the same stroke, as accidental double hits during the same stroke are nowadays allowed
