He bats most times with half a bat.

His bat face consistently closes whenever he bats.

I don't understand how a guy can be playing cricket so long and the batting coach can't correct this.

His grip needs correcting... Somebody help him please! I can't watch him bat like that anymore.

Good fight last game though.

For those who pay for personalized coaching, it's worth it. Every international player is aware of their weaknesses; it's up to each player to hire a coach and dedicate the necessary time to improve. Team coaches focus on preparing their teams for a series, and correcting flaws takes place daily.

Every day, I see why my Antiguian brother stays away from cricket after returning home.
I am still paying to learn to dance and play golf.
My three adult children are the ones who are responsible for me having coaches.
They had music teacher from the time they were potty-trained.

A blind man can see that.

He has a technical flaw that can be fixed.

But it's years now i've seen him bat and his technique hasn't changed.

I'm just putting it out there so hopefully someone can address it.

After watching him for 10mins it wouldn't be hard to miss.

Hopefully he can get some help

Roston Chase is 33 years old.

How realistic is it that he can overcome nearly 2 decades of muscle memory now?
