There was a stretch when VVS Laxman was spoken about in the same breath as Australia\u2019s most intimidating batters\u2014someone who could flip a match with a single spell of batting. By 2003, Sachin Tendulkar had already grown into a global cult figure, with his memorable Australia heroics winning over fans well beyond India. For years, it looked as if no one could truly threaten Australia\u2019s dominance at home or away in the early 2000s\u2014until the year 2001, when Laxman produced a defining Test knock of 281 in Kolkata. Facing a pace-heavy lineup that included Glenn McGrath, Jason Gillespie and Shane Warne, Laxman broke through every layer of pressure and made a statement that Australia\u2019s \u201cunstoppable\u201d reputation could, in fact, be challenged.<\/p>\n

Laxman\u2019s Kolkata moment and Gillespie\u2019s lasting memories<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. In 2001, Laxman scored 281 in Kolkata against an Australian attack featuring Glenn McGrath, Jason Gillespie and Shane Warne.<\/li>\n
  2. Jason Gillespie later reflected that Laxman did not just trouble the team in that Eden outing, but also hurt them again two years later during Australia\u2019s tour of the country, when Laxman produced another run-fest.<\/li>\n
  3. Despite that long-lasting impact, when Gillespie was asked to name his five greatest batters almost 25 years on, Laxman appeared only as an honourable mention rather than in the main list.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    On the \u201cFast Bowling Cartel\u201d podcast, Gillespie recalled how the 281 changed the way Australia tried to attack. \u201cMy honorary mention is VVS Laxman,\u201d he said. \u201cDo you guys remember? Absolutely tore us up in Kolkata in 2001. The 281 against us was one of the best knocks I\u2019ve ever seen. We tried everything but could not dislodge him.\u201d He added that the shot-making stood out\u2014particularly the way Laxman handled Warne\u2019s deliveries from rough areas. Gillespie described it as some of the best play against spin he had ever witnessed, calling it \u201cabsolutely nuts,\u201d and praised how Laxman also dealt with fast bowling effectively. He further noted Laxman\u2019s overall Test production, highlighting more than 8,000 runs at an average of 46 as evidence of a complete player.<\/p>\n

    Gillespie also expanded on his personal experience with Laxman through the Australian Under-19s era. He said they toured India and that Laxman turned up for essentially every match\u2014playing at levels such as Board Presidents XI, youth Tests, and other fixtures\u2014where he reportedly struck hundreds against them as well. \u201cSo, I can assure you now, I\u2019m sick and tired of seeing VVS Laxman smacking us Aussies everywhere around,\u201d Gillespie added, joking that he was relieved to retire so he would no longer have to bowl to him. He closed that section by describing Laxman as a wonderful player and a great person.<\/p>\n

    Gillespie\u2019s top batters and the case for Lara<\/h2>\n

    For Gillespie\u2019s full list, he placed Sir Garfield Sobers as the other honourable mention\u2014someone he could not face directly. From the batters he did play against, Gillespie ranked South Africa\u2019s Jacques Kallis at number 5 and Sri Lanka\u2019s Kumar Sangakkara at number 3, followed by Rahul Dravid\u2014\u201cThe Wall\u201d\u2014also at number 3. With the list set, he then named his top two.<\/p>\n

    Gillespie\u2019s number two, which he suggested many would consider his top choice, was Sachin Tendulkar. He cited Tendulkar\u2019s Test record\u2014nearly 16,000 runs at 53.8, 51 centuries across 200 matches, and a century roughly every four Tests\u2014as well as the fact he also struck another 49 hundreds in one-day cricket. He summed up Tendulkar as a \u201crun-making machine\u201d and emphasized how difficult he found it to bowl to the Indian great. \u201cSachin was very difficult to bowl to,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

    But Gillespie\u2019s number one was Brian Charles Lara of the West Indies. He explained why Lara edged out even Tendulkar in his view. According to Gillespie, many batters can be forced into familiar patterns when you deliver your best ball\u2014either defending or leaving it\u2014allowing bowlers to build control through dot balls and patient pressure. \u201cBut I never felt I could do that consistently with Brian Lara,\u201d he said. Gillespie stressed that Lara\u2019s approach changed depending on \u201cwhat gear he was in.\u201d In his assessment, Lara could jump from one mode to another instantly\u2014turning a ball that looked like the right line and height into a scoring opportunity anywhere around the field. Gillespie described the variety vividly: a delivery on top of off stump could suddenly be cut behind point, driven through midwicket, or flicked behind square.<\/p>\n

    The key difference for Gillespie was Lara\u2019s ability to keep the bowler under stress longer than most. \u201cHe had this incredible ability to put the bowler back under pressure, probably more than any of the other batters I have listed,\u201d he said. That, Gillespie concluded, is why Lara sits at the top of his rankings.<\/p>\n

    Glenn McGrath\u2019s response: Tendulkar\u2019s toughness and Lara\u2019s \u2018zone\u2019<\/h2>\n

    Glenn McGrath reacted to Gillespie\u2019s selections and broadly agreed with the top two. \u201cI agree with your top two,\u201d McGrath said. \u201cThey are obviously two of the greatest players the game has seen.\u201d He added that Tendulkar\u2019s mental strength was particularly striking. \u201cSachin was unbelievable, mentally so tough. You knew exactly what you were going to get from him every single day,\u201d McGrath remarked.<\/p>\n

    McGrath then echoed the admiration for Lara, saying that when Lara arrived \u201cswitched on,\u201d it typically meant a long day for the fielding side. \u201cBrian was a genius,\u201d McGrath said. \u201cIf he walked out switched on, you knew you were in for a long day. He was not always switched on, but when he was, it was game over.\u201d He pointed to specific landmark performances, including Lara\u2019s 200 at Adelaide Oval, suggesting that once Lara entered his best rhythm, the opposition had little chance to change the outcome.<\/p>\n

    McGrath also referenced Lara\u2019s 153 not out in Barbados in 1999. He described how Australia had been able to get reverse swing working and were bowling well, yet Lara still found a way to guide his side over the line in a fourth-innings chase with the tail involved. \u201cHe was simply too good for us that day,\u201d McGrath said, calling it \u201ca wonderful innings.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
