India and Pakistan together in the 1980's may have eclipsed Clive Lloyd's invincibles.Asess the batting depth and variety in bowling.In the sub-continent to me favourites and on par on genuine cricket tracks.I am tempted to have a flutter on the Indo-pak team but I am being an optimist
 
Actually you missed out Saleem Yousuf as wicketkeeper.

He played a huge role in drawing both series v the West Indies in 86-87 and 87-88.

In low scoring series his runs were crucial.

Who would win in your view?
 
and why would there be a need for a combine X1 when pakistan alone was enough to challenge the west indies in the 80s.

all that is needed is neutral umpires and DRS.
no joint team needed.
