Hi Hwi Jin,

You can do this but you may need to push the bat forward more to get the ball back on the table.

Do you find that you are missing it short or long?

The other options are to make the Lob.

Sir alois, i think that it's better to re-attacking but, can i do it with such a fast ball ? Because if i block or lob it, it will make them easier to attack with more power so that they can win the point easily

It just depends on how much time you have.  If you have more time and you are in a good position, then you can try to attack back.
