I personally don't think the attitude to get runs from behind the wicket has anything to do with Bulbul. This is called lazy batting. Anyone who has played some form of competitive cricket knows playing in front foot takes lot more concentration (i.e. to go for the ball rather than wait). This matter gets worse if or more difficult if the bowler swings the ball at good line. Our Batsmen have a tendency to wait for the ball rather than going for it (hence we get many lbw against us). I think you folks have identifed some genuinely poor performers. I believe there was posting a few days ago asking for putting a list of players who will be gone and lost. I think the list should start with these "lazy batsmen."
