Hi,

Thanks for providing such a wonderful place to guide and help my game improve.
I play a lot of backhand shots that I am able to learn through your guidance, but I am able to play it mostly diagonally. I saw your videos regarding playing a backhand counterhit but am unable to play it square of the table.
Please suggest me some way with which I can improve my strokeplay.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Mayank,

To get the ball down the line, try just hitting it a little later or turning your wrist slightly to change the angle.  It doesn’t take much to change the direction.

Our advice is to avoid the backhand smash and play the forehand smash instead. However if you do get caught out and need to play it, watch this video to learn the right technique to use.
