Your Asia XI

[prarara]

I looked in the search, and couldn't find a thread like this. If there is one, I'm sorry for missing it.

I have a few ideas for my Asia XI, but before I put them down, I'd like to know you Asia XI for Tests and ODIs.

I know my test XI is batting heavy, but its hard to take out any of those middle order batmen. Its bad enough I left out Zaheer Abbas and many others.

 

[sohum]

I think subcontinent sides will always be batting heavy because we did have many of the top batsmen in the world!
