After England and Australia were hit with heavy sanctions for maintaining slow over-rates during the entirety of the recently concluded Ashes 2023, former Australia and England captains Ricky Ponting and Nasser Hussain have proposed solutions for the concerning issue in Test cricket. England lost 19 World Test Championship  points due to sanctions in four of the Tests, while Australia dropped 10 points from one match. England were slow in all games except Headingley's third Test, and Australia was penalised for a slow over-rate in Old Trafford's fourth Test.

On the ICC Review, ICC Hall of Famer Ricky Ponting voiced his concern when asked about ways to rectify slow over-rate in Tests.
