Ties Match

I played only with Hj Din & Lan at my club last night. First game with Hj Din I beat him 3-0. Used backhand drive effectively. Second game I lost 1-3 to him because I was not take the game seriously. My mistakes mainly because of weak serve return.
Game with Lan is more exciting. I lost first game 0-3. This guy keep on hitting/smashing my reserve return on his left side. He was very good at this area. Second game , I changed my strategy by returning his serve on his right side or fast looping his serve. That is his weakness and I get lot of points on it. This time I win 3-2.
Last two games, my record ties with my opponents.
1) Hamzuri 1-1
2) Lan 1- 1
3) Mie Sulong 1-1
4) Hj, Din 1-1

Dead Ball

Last night, I played Mie JKR & Hamzuri. With Mie, my serve getting better that make his attacking loop serve return less effective. Short game strategy (slow ball) seem to be work well against him. Although I lost 2-3, my game is getting better.
Played with Hamzuri I gave him lot of dead ball bcause he is top spinner. With deadball , his spin always off the table. This time I won the match 3-2.
