Hi Alois,

Who will get point if the ball hits my racket directly without bouncing on my side of the table.  There could be two possibilities.

1. I play it over the table before ball bounces on the table.

2. I am away from the table, the ball miss the table and directly hits my racket intentionally or unintentionally.

Please clarify.

Hi Joyotosh,

If the ball is over the table it is your opponent's point.

If the ball has already passed over the table then it is your point.

Touching the Table

Are you allowed to touch the table during play? The only thing that isn't allowed to touch the table is your free hand. You leg, elbow, playing hand, and even your bat are allowed to. You are not allowed to move the table however.
