That's a very disturbing trend. You could be right about taking debutants lightly & not preparing enough on them. But when wickets are falling like automatic gun shots, shouldn't that trigger seriousness instinctively?
However, just as an alternative thought, I feel that they don't have the skill to read the bowler on the pitch within the innings and adjust their game according to the debutant bowler/batsmen. That also could be a reason.
Best/Sami aren't actually debutant & they should have got the video footage of the test/ODIs they have played.
