This is in contrast to spinners who've taken 110 wickets at 45.16. Pacers have accounted for 30.8% of our wickets compared to 50% the previous decade. The only way we can improve this is by setting up a pace academy and investing in our pacers.

This has more to do with Spinners taking more wickets(Read: Shakib + sunny + Gazi). nothing much changed for the pacers except Shahadat declined/digressed over the years big time.
