I always try to avoid commands that use subsearches since they don't scale.

You should be able to get the job done with this:

index=ABC (sourcetype=xyz OR sourcetype=pqr)
 | eval joinid=coalesce(XID,MyID)
 | stats count(XID) AS Count, values(Name) AS Name by joinid
 | rename joinid AS MyID

This takes some extra steps for clarity, but the gist is that you are using the "by" field in the stats to perform the "join". The count will be constrained to only events with an XID field, meaning that your sourcetype=pqr events won't influence your count, even though they are in the resultset.

Yup. Or,

 index=ABC sourcetype=xyz OR sourcetype=pqr 
| eval MyID = coalesce(MyID,XID)
| stats count(eval(sourcetype=xyz)) as count, values(Name) as Name by MyID
