Number of overs bowled by pacers in round 1(all 4 game):

435 overs, picked up 42 wicket. SO the SR is: (435*6)/42=62.1


Now lets have a look at numbers of overs bowled by spinners:

771 overs(nearly twice as many as pacers), picked up 74 wickets. So the SR is: (7771*6)/74=62.5


As you can see the number(SR) is very much identical. However pacers tend to give way more runs than spinners, hence they get to bowl less but we should also give fair amount chance to seamers too. Only that way our pipeline can get stronger and longer...

Well put. Thats where having seam friendly tracks will help. Captains must have the courage to give more overs to pace bowlers.
