Hi Saad,

This just means that you need to keep working on the serve.  You have achieved one good thing already and that is getting the ball to spin.  Now you can develop control by practicing the serve repetitively.  It will probably take a couple of weeks of practice to develop some control.  Then a few more weeks to be able to place it correctly on the table where you want it.

Serving is a difficult skill because you are touching the ball finely and fast.

You are on the right track so keep going now.
