Hi Alois and Jeff!

I was wondering if there are any exercises through which I can develop my touch,that is, my very fine contact on the ball when I am not at the table?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Sourav,

You can try to brush the ball finely and get it to spin on the ground.  You can also spin the ball up and try to control it with your bat again.

Just hitting the ball up and down on the bat will also improve your touch and control.

A lot of the things that we show you in our lesson on Practicing Alone will also help.
