Heard this is good for reflexes and concentration. Started playing in office for the past month or so post lunch.
I believe the most important thing to do better in this game is to observe how your opponent is playing.

No. There is one available in our play area. But that's not good.
I intend to get a own bat infact a pair of them and practise with my wife in our apartment.
Just not getting the time.

And not to mention how to pick up a serve and lift chop.

The most important thing in this is SPIN

and what you say here doesn't sync.
Too Early to discuss about spin I believe.

No bro what I wanted to say was maybe it's too early for you to think about Spin etc.

I have the TT rackets in my drawer in office since years. Hardly played for a few days.
Usually I don't get time, but willingness is also to blame maybe.

I think same brand as the one mentioned by you but not sure.
What about the bats?
I believe they range from Rs 100 till Rs 3000.
Bat/Racket is very important.

if he is not living with family, he may has to lure in some friends over free lunch or breakfast on weekends. depends on how enthusiastic he is for this tho.

Cool thread! I'm a tt enthusiast too, been playing for last 5-6 yrs.


My two cents on this..

Even if u don't spin hard urself, u should know how to return on the opponents spinning shot/serve. That way the rally is kept alive longer and chances of the other guy making a mistake increase (cos he's trying to spin hard each time).

The most important thing acc to me is anticipation and movement/positioning to play a shot

Which bats are you guys using? I mean made and size along with any grips or some thing?
