No not anti in cricket. But they do experiment a lot before applying any change. In fact the Hundred and 5 ball over has been running as an experiment. 

FYI, 20 overs format has only come in 2004, and reduced the time of one dayers (50 overs games) by 60%. Although Cricket is also about preserving the tradition, we still play test Cricket and I suppose we'll never leave 5 day games entirely, also not the one dayers.

What do cricket traditionalists think of the 5 ball over idea? 

I know in baseball for many years a lot of the traditionalists were anti any change but they have changed the game a lot the last few years with bigger bases, pitch clock, rules for how many times you can change the pitcher and call timeout etc. All to try to speed up the game and make it more interesting to younger viewers with short attention spans.
