Hi Siddharth,

Take a look at this previous question that answers a very similar question.

Returning serves that are fast to my backhand.

If you do a search at the top of the Ask the Coach page for 'Returning long serves to backhand' you will also see a few other questions there that will help.

Fake Movements

After the ball has left the server's bat, they can no longer affect the spin that is on the ball. Any movements after the contact are referred to as fake movements and are meant to confuse you as the receiver. You need to focus on the contact to read the spin.
