Which serve is good for me
Serving
Shubhanshu Saxena Asked 12 years ago
Sir, I do many serves like forehand sidespin serve, backhand sidespin serve, pendulum serve but my opponents easily chop the ball and when i chop the ball it goes out. I am practicing for my chop but my opponents have good serves that they can get points easily. which serves can I do? Please tell 5-6 serves so that I can win points from them.

Hi Shubhanshu,
I don't think you need to have too many serves. Try to focus on 2 or 3 serves and get these really good.
Just see which serves work best for you. See which one you feel comfortable with and the serves that give your opponents the most trouble.
