Hi Alois and Jeff.

First of all, I would like to thank you to make this website because it is pretty helpful for me.

So my question is that which is the spot on the bat where I get most sidespin because whenever I try to hit a sidespin shot, the ball gets too high and my opponent smashes it easily. 

Please give a response quickly so that I can practice it.

Hi Saifullah,

Hit the ball with the leading edge slightly near the top corner of the racket to get the best sidespin.

You can turn your bat more over the ball to keep it lower or wait for the ball to drop lower before hitting it.
