Hi Roshni,

I used to have this problem for a long time!

You will find that there are very few balls that you can't reach if you let the ball come to you.  You also need to get as close to the table as you can .  If you are a right hander, step with your right foot as far under the table as you can.

You can also try to keep the ball deep on their side.  From there it is more difficult for them to hit the ball close to the net. 

Don't worry it won't be long until you will be able to reach all of them.
