Okay. I don't want to 'throw' this hint away as it's worth '3-in-a-bed'

I've just been catching up on the news with Teletext and there was an item about the Miss World contest, held yesterday and won by a Miss A.... A.... of Turkey. So with the help of Google I think I can fill in the blanks as
YM, I (Yukta Mookhey, India (Miss World 1999)).
PC, I (Priyanka Chopra, India (Miss World 2000))

Can you supply the missing member of this group? It could also be seen as a sequence, in which case A and E would be equal first.
A, E, SA, WI, NZ, I, P, SL, Z, ?

Any chance that the missing one would be B for Bangladesh??  I think the other ones would be Australia, England, South Africa, West-Indies, New Zealand, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe, all full member countries of the International Cricket Council...

It looks like a list of Shakespeare's tragedies, so I'll go for R & J (Romeo and Juliet).
