What Is The Definition Of An Expedite Rule In Table Tennis?

Once the system starts, each player takes turns serving for one point. The opponent who does not serve must make 13 returns in a row to win the point. If they do not make 13 consecutive returns, the point is given to the server. This rule stays in place for the rest of the match.
