Shivaji was one king unmatched in his abilities, he is one of the best leaders of men in not only in all time history of the Indian subcontinent but also in the world. He should be ranked alongside greats like Alexander & Napoleon. Shivaji had torn apart tall & well built Afzal Khan with his own bare hands, in combat, which other emperor (incl mughal emperors) can even dare to think of coming face to face with such strong adversary, let alone defeat him. Shivaji was not a king who would sit in the comfort of their huge palaces and give only orders to the army, he always led from the front.
