Hi Sanat,

It is better to use a little bit of topspin on this ball.  It looks like an easy ball but I see a lot of players making mistakes with this one.  The backspin will still drag the ball into the net if you don't account for it.

Slow to Fast Progression

It's important to practice your shots slowly to get the correct technique. That will lead you to being able to hit the ball faster. You do need to practice these faster shots in training before using them in a match.
