He has a point you will never see India getting points docked for Over rate at home due to the rank turners we create but SENA countries due to their pitches that aid in fast bowling always at risk of points getting docked in WTC while playing at home.
Over-rate penalties: Frustrated Stokes wants clear communication from ICC
"The most frustrating thing is that it's always an issue depending on where you are in the world and the style of cricket that's played"www.espncricinfo.com
Rather than overrate there should be a timer like Spinners should complete their overs in 2.5mins and quicks in 6mins.
At the end of the game check what % of overs were completed in the timeline say 30/34 overs by spinners were completed within 2.5mins and 40/41 overs by quicks were completed in that time then that is total of 70/75 in given time which is 93.3%.
Have a cutoff like 90% and at end of innings for every 1% below 90% dock a point so if it is 84% then dock 6 points if its 80% dock 10 points in this way there will be equal chance for both SENA countries as well as Asian countries to be docked points while playing at home.
Otherwise 50% of tests Asian countries play at home they will never be docked points while SENA countries when playing 50% at home always at risk of point loss
