Kaustubh Kulkarni Asked 10 years ago

How to counter smashes while we are close to the table and don't have much time to go back for lobbing?

Thanks,

Kaustubh

Hi Kaustubh,

In this circumstance you need to be a little lucky. The best stroke to attempt is a block.

Take a look at the lesson on I Can't Return That Smash!.
