I think this is what most of the Australian cricketing public is finding hard to get used to, the pitches here during the majority of the time in the 90s and 2000s were flat and we made bulk runs, it's completely changed in this era.

Yep, now you have to work hard for a ton and find ways to score

Australia and England have essentially swapped pitches over the last decade or so.
