Strokes
Whenever I do a push, and I return back to my normal position, the ball gets flicked at me with good power. How do I counter a flick after pushing the ball short and using a short serve with spin?
-Thanks, Jason
Hi Jason,
The key is to get the push lower with more backspin. This will make it more difficult for your opponent to flick the ball fast at you.
If you are finding that in a match your opponent is flicking well, it may be better to push the ball deep and fast with backspin.
Although this is a very simple lesson, the idea applies to every level of player. Developing control and keeping the ball on the table is the most important skill in Table Tennis.
