Hi Arslan,

If the ball has chop then you could try playing it with a push return.  If you play it with a flat bat it will go straight down towards the table.  So by tilting the bat back you will counteract that effect and get the ball to go over the net.

The Push in Detail

The humble push does not sound like an exciting stroke but it is one of the most important shots in Table Tennis. Having a great short push can be the difference between being an average player and being a great player. Make sure you allocate the appropriate amount of practice to mastering the push.
