Hi Agha,

The block takes a lot of touch to be able to make it on the table.  Firstly don't try to do too much.  Let the ball come to you and then use the angle of your racket to guide the ball back.  Make sure you are contacting the ball when it is still higher than the net.

Practice this shot during training.  Get your partner to topspin to you consistently to one side and try to get the ball back consistently.  then you can get them to topspin to the other side and do the same.

Curve the ball past your opponent with the sidespin forehand topspin. The sidespin not only causes the ball to curve but also makes it very difficult to return.

Ithink it's very important to be relax, and a grip very lax
