What a beast Sangakkara is. I think he averages close to 70 as as pure batsman in around 80+ matches. Quite handy in ODIs too. I still remember his 40-ball 90 runs against us in that famous 414 chase in Rajkot. Underrated player. I'd rank him second best batsman from Asia in tests after Sachin.

In ODIs, it's pretty difficult to rank players with all the changes over the decades. 

 

In bowling, Steyn's stats are pretty underwhelming though.

Sangakkara career avg is around 60 when not a wk. the numbers above are all for batsmen not as wk. 
 

Great opening batsmen are gold in tests, while there are multiple options for MO, therefore likes of Gavaskar would be my first pick from Asia.  In MO, I would not care if x or y from Asia is in my 11 as they are more or less on par.
 

Sehwag has a great SR too as an opener and provides a huge advantage in certain conditions. 
 

Steyn has a good SR.

I find it really weird you took two decades and not one decade for the comparison considering that most players have have played only one decade

2008 was a start for Steyn. He was a wicket taker but expensive early on, so high average but good SR.

Didn't realise the stats were only till 2010. Makes sense then.
