Excessive interest rate debate: absurd law or necessary evil?

India is docking World Test Championship (WTC) Pointing out that their hard-won Boxing Day test victory among the Centurions has reignited the long-standing debate about test cricket rates.

The International Criminal Court found that India had violated one of its important competition conditions in the World Trade Center, and imposed a one-run penalty on the leader of Verat Colley “The goal after taking into account the time limit.”

Indian players were also fined 20% of the game fees, “According to Article 2.2 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel”The rule stipulates that every time a player fails to complete a game on the court, he shall be fined 20% of the game fee.

Since the establishment of the World Trade Center, the International Chamber of Commerce has adopted a more stringent operation method for overcharge regulations. This is clearly reflected in the World Trade Center’s revised game conditions: each time a team is found to have not reached the goal after time permits, they will deduct one point from the World Trade Center’s points.

In a dynamic game of nine teams, the team cannot always ensure its own trump card and may depend on the results of other teams. This is a tricky rule. Sometimes it is not necessary to compromise their balance and manufacturing. The performance of XI has been unwelcomely adjusted.

There is a thick layer of grass on the ground of the Centurion-the ground where the spinner averaged over 50 in the test cricket-India decided to play four walkers. In a rainy game, due to the delayed deterioration of humidity, Ravichandran Ashwin made a total of 22 pitches in the test, of which India made 130 pitches.

Due to the many speed rounds, the Indian side was found to be a little late when time allowed to end the game with a sufficient number of rounds. But in addition to the excess interest rate rule, there is also a debate about legality and fairness. In view of the track, India always tends to use four walkers.

Why does the International Chamber of Commerce strictly abide by the excess rate rules?

The same is true of the excessively high game conditions in the World Trade Center, which will hinder the team from playing the ideal team and avoid bowling in negative matchups, the least likely to bring them the desired result and force them to use the spinner, which-even Is Ashwin’s great budget-or maybe not what the Indian team wanted to do at the time?

Less than a week before the Centurion Boxing Day test, England was at the receiving end of the strict implementation of excessive rate supervision after competing with four professional sealers in the Adelaide D/N test. Although the England team chose the right offense that they thought was correct according to the conditions of the game, the International Criminal Court found that they were still five points away from the goal and imposed a five-point penalty on them at the World Trade Center, which greatly reduced their chances of reaching the finals.

In the World Trade Center cycle from 2019-21 to 2021-23, the excess rate rules have become more stringent. In the current cycle, regardless of the size of the series, teams compete for the same number of points in each test, and even single-point penalties may be substantial. Different from the previous cycle, depending on the length of the series, the team scored 24, 30, 40 or even 60 points in the test victory. Punishments as severe as five runs will not cause too much harm to one party. They can always make up for, restore and revitalize their campaigns, especially in family conditions.

On Saturday (January 1st), a discussion topic between cricket enthusiasts and the famous cricket statistician Mazhar Arshad gave us a glimpse of both sides of the argument.

Although the fan believes that the International Criminal Court should not impose excessive penalties if the referee does not discover that the team is deliberately adopting time-wasting tactics, but Pakistan’s Al Shad put forward a reason that the governing body will keep the broadcast of the game in mind. Company and TV hours.

Not really. If a TV channel has a dedicated 3-hour time slot for cricket matches, then it should end within 3 hours. This is why England is strict with overestimation, especially in the T20. The slow high rate will also increase the boring viewing. If there are no checks and balances, the team will not even reach 75 ovs/day.

Fans also argued that excessive fines should only appear in cricket tests. If there is a thorough result, the team’s pitch rate should not matter. But, once again, Arshad made a point that the International Criminal Court will not accept its appeal based on the results. The result is unknown.

What ICC is trying to eradicate is that a team can choose to pitch later so they can’t deny that the other team has a fair chance of winning.

You never know the final result. The time wasted by the bowling team on the second day may deprive another team of the victory on the fifth day. This is why you have to draw a line and ask the team to pitch the ball at a specific time.

Whatever it is, one thing is certain-excessive interest rate regulation and the debate about its implementation will not end soon. The International Criminal Court will continue to impose excessive fines and fines on teams that make mistakes after exceeding the time limit, and fans will continue to find rules in dispute when their teams bear the brunt. Therefore, the team currently has no choice but to accept and abide by the rules and conditions of the game and fight for their World Trade Center campaign.
