Strokes
Sankar Unknown Asked 17 years ago
hello .... if a ball is in the middle table with heavy backspin should i wait for the ball to come out of the table to play the topspin or hit it at the bounce of the ball?

Hi Shankar,
The best option is to wait till it comes off the table and use the topspin against backspin to lift the ball over.
If the ball is high enough you may be able to use the flick or flip. This can be difficult because of the backspin but it is a matter of getting the angle of your bat right to get it over.
Try both out and see how you go.
