Hi David,

Be patient.  If he doesn't attack much, wait for the right ball and then attack it fast.  In this situation, he will want you to attack so that he can use your pace.

We do have a Match Strategy lesson on Playing A Blocker.

Tactics Against a Good Short Pusher

Use a long push or a flick to open up the game against someone who is beating you at the short game. It might not be your favourite way to play but if you are losing the short game you need to mix things up. In the long run you certainly need to improve your own short game.
