Hi Jayant,
To do this you need the incoming ball to be quite wide so that you have a direct path to the table. Sometimes you can get a bit of sidespin and make it curve around the net but that adds another layer of difficulty.
Then wait till the ball is quite low, around table height and play a sidespin topspin stroke like we show you in the tutorial on the Sidespin Forehand Topspin.
Not easy... but lots of fun when you make it.

Slow to Fast Progression
It's important to practice your shots slowly to get the correct technique. That will lead you to being able to hit the ball faster. You do need to practice these faster shots in training before using them in a match.
