Respected sir,

I am an intermediete in table tennis yet I am unable to figure out how to place my serve please help.

Placement is the main problem with the sidespin serve.

Hi Nikhil,

Put some targets on the table.  You can use pieces of paper as large or small as you need to to challenge yourself.

Then it is a matter of practicing repetitively over a few months to get better at this skill.  Don't worry too much about the technical changes you need to make to change the placement, just focus on the target.
