I know I'm being picky, but I don't like the word "missed" in your description. It's not that it's okay to hit the opponent as long as you intended to hit the ball. It's too easy to take that idea and run with it to places that are not true.
What's being described is attempting to play the ball, but unintentionally getting the opponent's hand while it's on the ball. Thus, you haven't missed at all. You were unable to get to the ball because of the hand.
