What next, include Lankans in Tamil Nadu team and Bangladeshis in Bengal? While we are at it there are several Pak Punjabi cricket legends you can add in your XI. SK_IH and Adi BB 2 Link to comment

The team title reads "Punjabi" and they're all of punjabi background and Indian. Just another perspective..similar to 'zonal' teams. Just highlighting some greats of Indian cricket have punjabi background. Edited February 9, 2019 by PBN Link to comment
Adi BB Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Unfair not to include UP in north region and rajasthan in west. On topic ,north zone in lois,west probably in tests Link to comment

Anyway the topic is not along those lines but if you want go ahead. Link to comment

Punjabi Xi doesn't need to go outside of India to buff its lineup unlike Bengali Xi which you mentioned..even if it adds bangladeshis, it would be a sorry lineup. Link to comment

PBN Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 East Zone has the weakest team Link to comment
PBN Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 wouldn't include Yuvi in the North Zone.. too much of a weakness outside that offstump which was easy to exploit. A few good innings here and there but overall a poor/mediocre Test record. Would rather include a domestic stalwart in Dharmani even playing purely as a batsman. Link to comment
PBN Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Titles North Zone (18) West Zone (18) South Zone (13) Central (6) East Zone (2) Link to comment
Adi BB Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Strictly speaking of tests then south zone wins hands down in Asia,they have a strong bowling for Asian conditions. West zone wins outside Asia due to Zak and bumrah .north zone overall for me because of the swag and match winners and obviously my personal bias lol . East zone have an underrated side ,can surprise sides with their grit and street smartness Gollum and Brettcat 1 1 Link to comment
Moochad Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Think W zone is comfortabley ahead in all 3 categories. Outside Asia it is a no brainer, S Zone doesn't have the pace bowling. Even in Asia, W has more variety, Bumrah's pace, Zakk's reverse swing. W Zone can also replace Sunny with Pujara for captainship, Puj was pretty good when he led Saurashtra. Their weakness in Asia seems to be 2nd spinner. Gollum 1 Link to comment

express bowling Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 13 hours ago, Tattieboy said: Umesh ...264 wkts 29.40 Shani ... 242 wkts 28.20 Bhuvi .......218 wkts 26.50 Reserve RP Singh ....301 ..30.60 As a selector I would be more impressed with Kailash Gattani ( Rajistan) 396 wkts ..19 .91 Shami has to be there. He is a very low SR test match pacer while bowling 135 k to 145 k / 147 k throughout the day. Perhaps one of the best pacers in the World ever while bowling in Asian conditions. What was Gattani's pace like ? Wouldn't captains tend to favour a genuinely quick Umesh or a bouncy fast medium RP Singh ? 13 hours ago, Tattieboy said: Vinoo Mankad average 34.60 ? Wasim Jaffer 50.50 or Lalchand Rajput 49.50 or Gaekawd with 40 test matches not instead of Mankad ? Mankad makes the cut as an all-rounder. Mosher 1 Link to comment
