Hi Sir,

I am a lefty beginner and I really love to play the game. I have also joined a club recently. However I am not able to play Forehand strokes properly. My stance first was to squat a little towards my right hand side and playing defensive. I now stand parallel to table but still find it very awkward to play forehand shots. Please help.

Hi Omkar,

It may just be a matter of turning your body slightly before hitting the ball.  You can do this with your feet or by rotating you waist.  This will get your bat in a better position to hit the ball cleanly.

Strawberry Flick

The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
