Hi Rajveer,
This is something we will be able to add to our Match Strategy lessons down the track.
The basic thing is to see whether they like playing you using their pimples or whether the reverse rubber is better for them. Then focus a lot of balls to their weaker side.
Your pimple reversal will not have as much effect going to the pimples and also they will not generate as much spin with the short pimples to give you a chance to give them much spin back.
