Breaking of ball on table

Kaustubh Kulkarni Asked 11 years ago

If in a rally a player smashes the ball too hard and the ball falls on the side of his opponent and breaks into pieces,does the player hitting smash win the point or will they play the point again?

And what if his opponent returns a piece of the broken pieces of the ball?

And what if his opponent returns the pieces of the ball piece by piece?

And what if his opponent returns all the pieces at once?
