Hi Rahul,

Use the angle of your bat to steer the ball back. You will need to lift the ball a bit more than you expect if the flick is fast.  The speed of the ball often makes the ball feel heavier than you would think.

When you need to reach that really wide ball the regular shuffle step just won't get you there in time so you need to use the crossover step. This is essentially a running action to get you to the ball as fast as possible.
