His average, which stood at 55.37 going into the final day of his Test career on Monday, is superior to that of Dravid, Tendulkar, Ponting and Brian Lara.
But what really places Kallis on a higher plane is his outstanding contribution with the ball.
A natural bowler of away swing, capable of surprising pace and bounce, he has taken 292 Test wickets at an average of 32.65.

"Jacques Kallis: Cricket's least celebrated great?"
 
Could it be due to the fact that there was no rivalry such as between Imran, Botham, Kapil & Hadlee which made them more popular and celebrated, had there been another good allrounder during Kallis's era he probably would've gotten more recognition with people drawing comparisons.
