Kasparov is a few notches higher...

Anand had always given tough competition to Kasparov...he was the king in speed chess even in Kasparov's presence.

However no one can deny that the latter was the undisputed King when he was playing.

Anand always had problems in realizing a winning position and while he technically equal, tactically Kasparov was much ahead.

Anand is more hard working and Kasparov has more natural talent.

Yes, Anand is deserves whatever he is today. But, Kasparov is a genius. Far ahead of all the pack! And, even now he has the highest ELO rating!

He is far ahead of the pack because he is running away from the leader scared of what will happen to him if the pack catchs up

quiet opposite actually... Anand was naturally goo at it while kasparov was produced by strong Russian chess scene. I wish anand was more hard working, he would have toppled Kaspy in WTC match itself.
