Hi Mahimn,
The thing is to watch the ball when they are contacting the ball and try to recognise the type of spin they are putting on the ball. Once you can recognise this you have a better chance of returning it. By identifying which way the ball is spinning you can then use the angle of your bat to steer the ball back onto the table. If the ball is going to spin off to your left, then angle your bat to face the right and vice versa.
