backhand drive
Non-dominant side shot
A backhand drive is a stroke in racket sports—tennis, table tennis, badminton—where the player swings across the body with the back of the hand facing the direction of the shot.
It's typically hit flat and fast, keeping the ball low: She answered the serve with a sharp backhand drive down the line.
