Hi Shahed,
Firstly, congratulations on your excellent results. Keep working on your game.
In a few years see if you can get an opportunity to play some international events. It will still take a few years of development to get to the level of playing professionally which you can do with hard training in Bangladesh.

#11 - Improve Your Pushing
The push is an important part of Table Tennis. It is a defensive stroke which you use to make it hard for your opponent to attack. This week we give you a number of pushing drills and even incorporate some pushing games into the session for a bit of fun. We continue to work on your serve and in this session we concentrate on your placement.

Perhaps go on a few international training camps first? I know William Henzell trained overseas and still plays for Aus
