Asian teams have higher chance of success in modern LOIS due to flat pitches which support spin more than seam.

We see spin taking far considerable role in modern day lois compared to first few overs of swing/seam which makes Asian batsmen who are better at spin than their sena peers have an upper hand. We see spin in middle overs even in countries like SA and NZ, only exception is recent ODI series in Australia where seam was throughout the match but ICC seldom make seam pitches in ICC tournaments.



If the skill gap is covered in power hitting between sena and asian countries then we would see better performances by asian team. Example is India which is constantly dominating sena countries because they have batsmen who can play modernly and spin bowlers who can bamboozle batsmen.

India can win on any pitch

Pak cannot
So conflate all Asian teams as one and proclaim that Asian teams have better chance of success due to spin friendlier oitches

If anything India is poor vs spin than pace.
