his front foot is just planted on the crease around middle stump no matter where the ball is pitched. He has become a walking wicket.

Not at all. He looks like a school boy out there. Honestly, he has looked the least likely to make runs of any of our batsmen.

When the eyesight and reflexes going no amount of desire or clapping or hoping will change that

For a moment, I thought you were referring to his tenure as captain.
My bad.

Chase problem is technique. He pushes his left foot down the track and then brings his right foot across towards off stump. His waist rotates with his right foot and that leaves him totally off balance to anything outside off.

If it was so simple then it would have been sorted out already
He has been failing for a long time in all formats
He is an all format failure
He does not even score runs regionally
He makes the WI side only because he is the captain

It is a technical flaw, sometimes they are difficult to correct. Nothing is wrong with his eyes.

Chase stands tall and pokes with no feet movement. Gets squared up and it's mighty close to the outside edge. Let's see what UltraEdge says. The hosts went up straightaway after Mitchell Hay caught it. UltraEdge taking time to load and here it is. Clear spike when the ball is close to the bat. West Indies lose their fifth wicket and burn a review as well. Roston Chase c Mitchell Hay b Jacob Duffy 2(10)
