Hi Aatif,
Take a look at our lesson on the Backhand Counterhit. Work hard on this stroke and try to get the feel for it.
Then in training make sure that whenever the ball is on the backhand half of your table, you should play a backhand. This will start to change your position at the table and also your confidence in making the backhand stroke.

Tactics Against Penhold Players
When playing penhold players it is important to remember to first analyse your opponent as you would if they used any grip. What are their strengths and weaknesses? A common weakness of penhold players is their forehand block especially against a slow spinny topspin. Their backhand may be a weakness if they use the traditional style, or you may wish to explore the crossover point if they are using the reverse penhold backhand.
