The flipside of that, though
That shot has got Crawley lots of runs. Brook is world ranked number 2, “ridiculous” shots and all. Pant did that falling over reverse sweep shot last summer and got called the great entertainer. Did the Indian media criticise him? (I don't know, I’m asking). Australia had / has a settled team, their players don’t get dropped immediately if they have a poor game.
Contrasting the current team and organisation with past iterations, I’m not sure I want to go back to the days of Burns and Sibley, grinding out 50 runs in half a day, if they didn’t get out, and players getting one or two games and then disappearing forever.
