Hi Shikhar,

Getting the correct brushing action can take some time.  You need to keep working on it.  Your action may be OK but it only takes a very small adjustment to get the correct contact.

The bat will be OK for this.  Try slowing down the strokes and see if that help you.  Work on your control for a little while.
