"Warming up" during the match
Rules
Yap Zhi De Asked 10 years ago
Hi Alois
Why some players can have "warm ups" during the match? They could do a forehand to forehand "training" during the match and that point will not count, can you really do that in a match? In this video, Zhang Jike does some forehand with Fang Bo before serving in 33:37 before starting the next point.

Hi Yap,
This happens when they change balls and use a new ball usually because the ball they were using has broken.
They usually just do a few hits to make sure the new ball is OK.

If you hit the ball and it lands on the net camp on your opponents side, is it in or out?
