A ‘Very Very Special batsman’, Laxman is the man to watch when he is at his sublime best. For his excellent wrist work on the leg side, Laxman is often compared with his idol Mohammad Azharuddin. The naturally-gifted batsman played a miraculous knock of 281 runs against Australia to steer India to a win in the famous Kolkata Test.
The only disappointment for the Hyderabad born until now will be that of not playing for India in the World Cup. He is one batsman after Sachin Tendulkar to have dominated Australia the most.
