Hi Praanesh,

This is a common problem.

What you can do in training is start to do more random hitting. That is hitting where you don't know where the ball is coming to. This way you will start to replicate more closely playing your strokes in a match. It is a first step to learn to play the strokes individually but it is the next step to be able to play them in a series of shots.

#8 - Fast Footwork

In this session you'll focus on increasing the speed of your footwork. To do this we ask you to forget about consistency and concentrate on speed. You should be playing at a pace where you can get around 4 or 5 balls on the table. If you are getting 10 or 20 balls on then you need to up your pace again. It's important to play right to the edge of your ability to actually increase your skill level. We also continue to develop the new serve you have chosen to work on.
