What would be your ideal bowling lineup for SC and SENA?

SENA

Marshall, McGrath, Steyn, Warne (should be Hadlee over Steyn based on stats, but Hadlee is close in style to McGrath and would want Steyn's extra pace and aggression)

Sub Continent

Marshall, Imran, Murali, Warne

If you want pace and aggression, why Steyn and not Lillee? Lillee was awesome in Australia and England, whereas Steyn was a bit below par there.

Strange how Lillee goes absent in these conversations.

Their records in India has less to do with not being able to bowl in India and more with regards to facing the Indian's which Ashwin didn't have to do.

Warne's spin wasnt really ideal for Indian conditions anyways. I back Ashwin to outperform Warne in SC. His skills here are awesome. And Murali and Ashwins mutual home knowledge can't be underestimated.

Curious to know why Ambrose is being left out of SENA.

You could pick any two out of McGrath, Hadlee and Ambrose and not be wrong.

I'd replace your Lillee with Ambrose personally.

Why? You need a conventional swinger more than three corridor bowlers.

Ambrose was immense in all 4 places and cleaned up vs an outstanding Australian team. You can convince me with the Asian argument but Ambrose is a must in SENA.

McGrath, Lillee, Hadlee and Ambrose were all immense.

However, Lillee offers a different skillset though.

But you convinced me to drop McGrath.

Hadlee, Lillee, Ambrose, and Warne.
