I've never much liked sentences that start "Critics argue that...".
Here's an alternative I saw at [[Tied Test]]:

Some commentators believed Chappell should have taken Snedden's word

I find this to be more natural, less contrived, and more NPOV.
"Critics" seems to imply that the people had it in for the subject of

just (presumably somewhat notable) people who expressed an opinion on
the event.
Any opinions? Other alternatives to the infamous "critics"?
