Hi Long,
It can be a difficult ball to react to especially if they flick fast.
You first need to make sure that you get back into your ready position. The ball will feel like it is heavy so you need to lift the ball up with a more vertical stroke.
If they flick slowly then you can take the opportunity to attack the ball as well because it has some topspin on it.

Strawberry Flick
The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.

if they topspin... then we also should try to block right?
Yes that is a good choice.
