While serving in table tennis, if the ball bounces more than 1 time in opponent's court (IN SERVICE) then who will get a point, the server or the opponent?

Hi Maaz,

This is the servers point.  You are allowed to serve it as short as you want.  After one bounce the receiver has to reach it and return it to stay in the point.
