Dear PingSkills,
In some matches, I am usually caught off guard with long deep pushes to either my forehand or backhand side. When the ball arrives, it usually to my side and I am not in a good position to execute a good return. This is partly because I am closer to the table.
How should I return these deep pushes? How can we better anticipate them and what position should we be to return them well?
Regards,
Kenneth
Hi Kenneth,
I would try to stand a little further back from the table. It is a little easier to move in to play the short ball than out.
If you are in a good position to play the deep push then try to make a topspin ball. However, depending on your opponent if they don't attack well then don't be afraid to wait for the right opportunity to play your topspin.
