Hi Martin,
The key thing here is to only use the angle of your bat to steer the ball back. Don't try to come across the ball or spin it back.
If the spin drags the ball to the left just angle your bat so that it is facing towards the right. If the ball is dragging out the the right then angle your bat to the left.
Try this simple method out and let us know how it works for you.
