Nivas1013 asked 5 years ago

I am not able to read opponent service.They are doing vert short and spin serves over the net and very fast serves on back hand and right hand.It Is difficult read some times spin that they are using.All fast services are landing on the base line on my side.I am not able to return very quick.If I stand far away from the table they are doing short serves and suddenly very fast serves diagonal sides.Can you please guide me how to play returns for those services?

Hi Nivas,

The key thing is to try and practice against these types of serves as much as possible. Watch this video: https://tabletennisdailyacademy.com/videos/return-tricky-long-sidespin-serves/ it goes over exactly what you need to do and how to return these fast serves that land on the base line.

When the ball goes short here is a great video which covers the return of these serves to: https://tabletennisdailyacademy.com/videos/returning-short-heavy-sidespin-serves/

If you could send us in a video of you returning these serves that would be of fantastic help for me and Tom to provide you with feedback 🙂

Hope the videos help.
Dan 🙂
