Grip Problem

Strokes

My problem is that while using backhand I have one finger to the raquet as that eases me during the shot but during forehand I use 2 fingers at the back of the raquet and while playing I have to constantly keep switching fingers which becomes a problem sometimes.

Hi Saurabh,

Unfortunately, the simlpe fact is that you are going to have to decide on one grip.  You just haven't got time to change the grip that much during a rally.  I would recommend the one finger on the back.  You can change your grip a little from backhand to forehand but drastic changes are difficult to cope with.
