Hi Coach.
I am playing table tennis since few years but now i have a problem. Whenever i play against pimples i am not able to continue the rally. When i hit a topspin my opponent chops it with pimples. Please help me with it.

Hi Shivam,
If it is long pimples the ball will probably be coming back to you with a bit of backspin. You need to account for this in your next stroke bye either lifting it with topspin or pushing the ball back.
We have a tutorial on Help Against a Chopper with Long Pimples which may help you as well.
