Hi Debarshi,

Placement and speed are the keys here.

One good way is to make them move sideways first.  If they aren't able to reach the ball they will start to move back to give themselves more time to react.

maybe you can create more sidespin and try to make the trace longer.

You can put sidespin that spins away from the other player.  Swinging away.
