Hi Uzair,

For the flick one of the key things I find helps is to get the wrist back at the start of the stroke.  Then look at using a little topspin to help to get the ball on the table.

We have a tutorial on the Forehand Flick that will help you further.

As a guide to upgrade your racket I would go for an all-round type blade with a slower rubber such as Mark V.  We have the PingSkills Touch with Mark V as an option.

Slow to Fast Progression

It's important to practice your shots slowly to get the correct technique. That will lead you to being able to hit the ball faster. You do need to practice these faster shots in training before using them in a match.
