Hi coach
i can't handle the forehand top spin and smash. When do I block the ball then the ball is out of table.

Hi Kritagya,
It is difficult to handle those shots. Try to practice your blocking. Keep your hands soft to absorb some of the speed.
More importantly though, try to stop them from being able to make the stronger shots.
Take a look at this lesson on I Can't Return That Smash!

Tactics Against A Defensive Chopper
A chopper likes to get back from the table and get into a nice rhythm. If you keep the defender close to the table in the early part of the rally, it's hard for them to transition back into their chopping position. So keep the ball short on your serve and try and catch them unprepared. Watch the video to find out more great tactics to use against a defensive chopper.
