In odi's you get less fielders inside the circle in the last few overs if you are behind. There are actual match consequences. Also the overs will still get bowled, not lost like test cricket so there is no real advantage of being slow.What is allowing them to get through the overs in ODIs then, come hell or high water?
I don't care if you need to switch to a pink ball under lights or what you have to do, being a dozen plus overs short on days when there are no weather delays is simply unacceptable, and will kill the game.
Oh I agree with you regarding switching to the pink ball and playing till the overs are done.
