Suggestion: Scrap Drinks Break If Match Nearly Finished

From today's game:

The refreshing drinks cart gracefully glides onto the field, offering a much-needed respite to the players. A brief interlude is underway, providing both teams with a moment to rehydrate and strategize for the upcoming chapters of this gripping narrative, as it promises more twists and turns on the field.
V. Moses is tired.
L. Myburgh (rm) 3-0-4-2, V. Moses 67 (76b), J. Puncheon 1 (2b)
End of over 25 (7 runs) - South London's Number One CC(154-3). 1 runs required from 25 overs. RR 6.16 RRR 0.04

I mean surely it would be more sensible to just not bother with the drinks break given it'll almost certainly only take a few balls maximum until the match is finished anyway. Maybe if there's less than say 20 runs to win, or 8/9 wickets down the drinks break should just be scrapped.
