What's peoples' thoughts on introducing bonus points for the 2 different formats?
A bonus point in OD if you take all 10 wickets of your opponent.
A bonus point in T20 if your RR is more than 1.25 times your opponent.
Would something like that make the leagues more interesting?

Re: Bonus Points
It would increase the impact of teams going inactive mid season. And it changes the match dynamic, which the ME is not made for.
I wouldn't mind having average rr difference as the tiebreaker instead of net run rate.

Re: Bonus Points
I don't mean for it as a tiebreaker. An extra league point for getting your opponent all out in a OD match.
An extra league point if you win your T20 match by big margin.
It might push inactive teams to the bottom of the ladder but I doubt it would turn players off the game. Does it really affect the match dynamics? What would have to change in the ME?
