Some of you Guys took my video in wrong way... what I meant to explain.. to not expose your backhand side of court too much vulnerable to get attacked.. and about attacking..it's not about whether u hit to opponents backhand or forehand..it's about 1.are you in a position to hit straight or cross. 2. distance of cross smash is long so if opponent defends it welll..then you'll have to run all the way to get it back which is useless. Especially if you hit overhead cross.. the speed of recovery is way less because your back is over worked 3. Are you generating enough rotational power from your forehand rear court. 4. Straight overhead smash is great because rotational power is high and distance is less... a little variation once in while will keep opponent guessing
Thank you! Thank you so much everyone for liking and understanding my video! I'm not a video editor or even good at it so it took me a lot of efforts to create this one. will keep creating more and more analytical videos which you guys must have missed observing.. and bit controversial observations like " lee chong wei has worst footwork or Why kento Momota completely copied Lin Dan's strategy"
Really good video dude. Keep up the hard work. You gained a new sub. Really underrated. Helped me a lot in making my own strategy. Would be rlly appreciated if you made similar vids abt other players like LEE CHONG WEI , MOMOTA , VIKTOR AXELSON . Anyways much love... Keep going
Thanks Nitya! I'll try to make better videos from now on I want to teach badminton to all over the world with my analyst mindset that will help badminton get even better.
agree with almost everything i have been writing about it for so long straight overhead smash from your backhand side which dips and follow up is the most feared shot and having proper motion and power makes your game dangerous in ways unimaginable , look at the all the best players which are up there to be considered best in recent time , lin dan , lee chong wei , kento momota, viktor axelsen all have a great overhead smashing technique (apart from chen long which primarily always used cross smash) , master this motion and you are good for great things in future i can count on fingers today which player has a proper overhead technique : shi yuqui , li shi feng , ginting , rest are dominantly cross court smashers and for the backhand side of lee chong wei , he was not wanting himself to be exposed when he played lin dan all those times but when you play a lefty you get to know that your backhand defense is breakable , things are way different when you play a lefty for a righty , in reverse lefties majorly play righty starting from junior stages , because anyone can tell their is a scarcity of left handed players be it any racket sport apart from i think table tennis got the most , so they get used to the game quickly (i think it is make or break in their situation either they are way too good or they fall flat , their is no in between) and generally develops strong backhand side themselves better in comparison to a righty see the example of momota no one could break his backhand defense apart from the time he played fast players like ginting , lcw which along with speed had good deception also overhead smash and follow up , and everyone had backhand side exposed by momota so their is nothing new to it , it happens when you play a lefty everyone know viktor's pet shot is straight overhead smash from his backhand side and he now has 2 gold medals with it. lee chong wei till 2009,10 was not considered a great smasher but he developed , worked on his technique till the time next olympics came he could attack from anywhere and everywhere so i guess players should take a note and try to change their technique while they still can
All this works because Lin Dan is LEFT HANDED. In all racket sports left handers have a basic underlying advantage because there are fewer of them. It's the same in tennis with Nadal as well.
The strategy here is brilliantly analysed but one limiting factor is that this would work if the dominant arm of both players differed from each other. If both players are only right-handed or only left-handed, this strategy seems a bit tough to implement. Maybe some adjustments need to be made.
this was the same thought i have had, but after analysing many games of LCW,AXELSEN, LEE ZI JIA, LOH KEAN YEW...and many more right handed players, its evident that this strategy is really good.. especially when viktor used this strategy during olympics 2021 finals against chen Long... but hey.. Why dont we try ourselves and use it and lets see if it works for all? for me it did play very important factor in getting better and stable in my fast paced game.. really able to convert these overhead straight smashes into winners
To correct you on the dominant hand part, the trick for this strategy is to smash the opponents weaker side and to clear it to your stronger side In which case, for the majority of people, the backhand is weaker while the forehand is stronger In the event you notice your opponent has a stronger backhand compared to forehand, just do it the other way around, smashing the weaker side
@@adrianljx66 but we also need to consider the build up of the smash, i.e., pushes to the forehand side of the opponent, will leave us exposed on our backhand and thus the build up to our smash wouldn’t be as effective. Unlike in the video, pushes to the forehand side of the opponent don’t expose Lin Dan’s backhand side

Thanks for understanding the strategy! But remember.. to not open up your backhand side too much to the opponent.. worst stroke ever is forehand cross court life..do avoid it

Wow amazing 🙌
Thank you 🙌
agree with almost everything
i have been writing about it for so long
straight overhead smash from your backhand side which dips and follow up is the most feared shot and having proper motion and power makes your game dangerous in ways unimaginable , look at the all the best players which are up there to be considered best in recent time , lin dan , lee chong wei , kento momota, viktor axelsen all have a great overhead smashing technique (apart from chen long which primarily always used cross smash) , master this motion and you are good for great things in future
i can count on fingers today which player has a proper overhead technique : shi yuqui , li shi feng , ginting , rest are dominantly cross court smashers
and for the backhand side of lee chong wei , he was not wanting himself to be exposed when he played lin dan all those times but when you play a lefty you get to know that your backhand defense is breakable , things are way different when you play a lefty for a righty , in reverse lefties majorly play righty starting from junior stages , because anyone can tell their is a scarcity of left handed players be it any racket sport apart from i think table tennis got the most , so they get used to the game quickly (i think it is make or break in their situation either they are way too good or they fall flat , their is no in between) and generally develops strong backhand side themselves better in comparison to a righty
see the example of momota no one could break his backhand defense apart from the time he played fast players like ginting , lcw which along with speed had good deception also overhead smash and follow up , and everyone had backhand side exposed by momota so their is nothing new to it , it happens when you play a lefty
everyone know viktor's pet shot is straight overhead smash from his backhand side and he now has 2 gold medals with it.
lee chong wei till 2009,10 was not considered a great smasher but he developed , worked on his technique till the time next olympics came he could attack from anywhere and everywhere so i guess players should take a note and try to change their technique while they still can
Bro
I really really appreciate your knowledge..
We all deserve a group chat don't we😂
We will be able to talk for hours and hours
All this works because Lin Dan is LEFT HANDED. In all racket sports left handers have a basic underlying advantage because there are fewer of them.
It's the same in tennis with Nadal as well.
@@cyberpsybin watch Lin Dan's match against left handed players
And check if he uses same strategy or not
The strategy here is brilliantly analysed but one limiting factor is that this would work if the dominant arm of both players differed from each other. If both players are only right-handed or only left-handed, this strategy seems a bit tough to implement. Maybe some adjustments need to be made.
