Bat touches the table is it fault
Rules
Bhanu Shankar Asked 11 years ago
If the bat touches the table while serving, is it a good serve or a fault?
If the body touches the table while serving or in between the game, is it a fault?

Hi Bhanu,
The only thing that isn't allowed to touch the table is your free hand. Anything else is allowed to touch the table as long as you don't move the surface of the table.
So if the bat touches the table while serving it is a good serve.
