Hi Sudhakar,

Firstly treat this shot with a lot of respect because it is difficult.

Your feet need to be balanced and stable like any other stroke in Table Tennis. Then the contact of the ball needs to be brushing on the inside of the ball. The same principles apply as the ones we show you in our lesson on the Sidespin Forehand Topspin.
