Hello Pingskills, sorry for my bad english, I have a question about: What if opponent's ball goes out and I accidently hit it with my racket. Who's point is that?

Hi Daniel,

If the ball has already gone past the end of the table and then you hit it, it is your point because the ball is out of play.

The first mistake in Table Tennis always is the one that counts.  So because the ball has already gone out that is the first mistake.

i hope this clears up the rule for you.
