On your second point - and I respect your opinion, but I would rather the captains decide where they place their fielders, not power play, or any extra rules.
Well it does differ from Test cricket - Test cricket lasts five days, while you see a result in one day cricket with any rules.
Are we not singing the same hymn here? The one and only fielding rule for ODI's that I am suggesting is to allow a maximum of four fielders beyond the 35-yard line throughout the 50 overs. Where the fielding captain places those four or rest of the field is entirely upto him.
