While playing (right handed player), the bat slips and falls on the table. Can he pick up the bat with his left hand and continue playing?

Hi Ujjal,

You are allowed to pick the bat up again and continue the rally.  As long as you have your bat in your hand you are allowed to hit the ball with the bat.

Touching the Table

Are you allowed to touch the table during play? The only thing that isn't allowed to touch the table is your free hand. You leg, elbow, playing hand, and even your bat are allowed to. You are not allowed to move the table however.
