Hi Deepak,

The most important thing is to watch the ball.  This will give you more time to react.

Take a look at the lesson on our Strokes & Techniques page on Improving Your Reflexes for help on this.

Strawberry Flick

The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
