Playing no spin and less spin balls

Strategy

singaraju avancha Asked 11 years ago

I am 5ft 11 inch and I am so comfortable playing away from the table even heavy spin and speed. I lose crucial points when the ball has no spin and speed both close to the net and edge of the table. Can you please explain.

Hi Singaraju,

When they play with less spin or speed the ball doesn’t come through to you. For these balls you need to step in closer to the table or if you stay back try to keep the ball as low as possible or initiate your own speed and spin on this ball by playing an attacking stroke.

Tactics Against A Defensive Chopper

A chopper likes to get back from the table and get into a nice rhythm. If you keep the defender close to the table in the early part of the rally, it's hard for them to transition back into their chopping position. So keep the ball short on your serve and try and catch them unprepared. Watch the video to find out more great tactics to use against a defensive chopper.
