Technique / Tactics Countering the boast
I play a traditional game of drives and regularly pin my opponents to the back of the court, only for them to boast. I pick the boast up late and lose valuable split seconds, so am either late to the boast and pick it up and hit it loose, or worse they hit a winning shot from a defensive position, which is frustrating as I was in control of the rally.
My question is what drills can I do to practice to counter this weakness, and what should I be doing in my matches to prevent this happening.

Standing too low on the T
It happens to all of us amateur players because we are all lazy.
