hey ... thanks for giving your last tip for forehand smashes and it actually worked for me... and i'm now all set for participating in the tournament which is from 7-10 august... but i am facing another problem .. and this is about my racket.....

i am a shake-hand grip player .. and in the back-hand side, where i put my 1st finger... used to have a wet spot as my hands usually get sweated...  at the mid-end of my back hand, there forms a kind of wet spot and it usually does not clears while just wiping it up ....
so what should i do as it really face difficulties in-between the match as some of the balls contacts down there at that spot and that wet part of my racket doesn't spin that ball at all... and that's where i suffer...

Hi Vishwa,

Before a match try to cool your hands down by running them under some cold water.  During the game blow some air on your hands between each point. Each six points use a dry towel and dry your hands and bat.  This should keep it a bit more manageable.
