Recently, I had participated in a tournament where I was playing doubles. And one of my opponent did a very long , fast serve which also swung in the air. I could not receive it. What should I do?

Hi Shivam,

Watch the ball carefully.  It will tend to curve in one direction.  Then if it is long use a topspin to make the return.
