It is a misconception that it was selfish batting. More down to lack of endurance and also lacks the ability to hit the old ball as he is not much of power hitter. Relies on timing and finding gaps, easier to do with the powerplays on and new ball in and then plays spin very well too but in death overs, he struggles because of limitation of power hitting and clearing the boundary by hitting down the ground.

it wasn't selfish batting, but it did expose his limitations. that is what I was getting at. however, if these limitations are not eventually overcome a few years down the line, I would be worried then. In the modern era, one cannot become the complete batter without having extra gears - what worked for 90s-2000s folks won't fly now (at least for "top" teams).
