I was going through the west indies first class structure and found some very interesting things in it.
In their team points table, while a win leads to 12 points, along with bonuses of scoring x amount of runs or x amount of wickets in 110 overs, one interesting aspect was that team also gets 0.2 points per wicket if a pacer takes a wicket.
For example if Narine took 4 wickets, and Shamar Joseph took 6 wickets, his team will be awarded with 1.2 points.
Further findings were that their domestic structure includes the islands, along with a West Indies Academy team and a combined campuses and colleges team (As their cricket structure is school based).
Wondering, to promote pacers, if we could also adopt this?
