Current Asian ODI XI
Cricket must have been originated from Englandor France, who knowsbut it is in Asia where the game is oozed with every single breath. There is a country where a billion people follow the sport like a religion and then there is another country where queues form in front of ticket counters TWO days prior of it opening.Such is the passion of the sport here that it can be seen being played in almost every street that consists of a small space of land.Playing Asian teams also generates more money as the viewership in Asia is more than anywhere else. Some of the finest cricketers in the world are from this continent and it is of little wonder why Asian players are among the most revered in the world of cricket.So with all that in mind, here is an XI consisting of Asias best players CURRENTLY (this list is based purely on current form and current form only).
#1 Tillakaratne Dilshan
The flamboyant Sri Lankan has been in fine form this year as he stands 4th in the highest run getters of 2015. With an average of 59 and an astonishing 1003 runs in only 18 innings, he can be dubbed as the best Asian batsman of the year.
His knock of 161* against Bangladesh in the World Cup completely displayed the type of form he is in and the type of style he bats in: dominating. With a cool head on his shoulder, he oozes reliability at the top of the order and will open for the Asian XI, if there was such a team in existence.
And his partner in crime would be the second active Asian player next on the top runs-getter list…
