How can I counter spin a ball easily by making myself ready for the stroke.

Hi Sachet,

At first start with a blocking action and then slowly progress to a little more brushing action to get the counter spin.

The important part is getting good contact on the ball initially.  A lot of players try to get the perfect spin contact straight away and end up missing the ball more often than they contact it.
