Lara
Murali
McGrath
Though it was difficult to choose between Lara and Murali belonging to different categories.

Cricket is a team sport, that being said, there is no doubt McGrath has achieved the most. I am not joking that as I write this now, Glenn McGrath has taken wickets with consecutive balls against South Africa in the world cup semi final.
Without Glenn McGrath, Australia would simply have not achieved the dominance it has in world cricket over the last decade.
Lara has been in a losing team for years and Murili's records will always be tarnished because of his suspect action (but that is a separate issue). McGrath is also the worsed batsmen of the three however, lol.

Its undoubtedly B.C.LARA
Lara was considered precocious by all those who had seen him even before he made his international debut, and it didn't take him long to translate all that talent into runs - in only his fifth Test, and his ninth innings, he stroked a magnificent 277 against Australia at Sydney in 1992-93. One-day success took him slightly longer to achieve - his first ODI century came in his 41st match, but only a little more than a month after that memorable double. Since then, there have been a few hiccups, but those troughs were almost always followed by heady highs, which ensured that he was always in the mix when discussion veered towards who's the best batsman in the world.
An important criterion when discussing that is performance against the best team in the world, and Lara's numbers against Australia indicated his class: in Tests he averaged 51 against them from 31 games, with nine centuries - each of them a gem, and one, the matchwinning unbeaten 153 in Barbados, arguably his best Test innings. His ODI numbers against them were pretty good too - an average of nearly 40 from 51 games.
Part of the thrill of watching Lara was the uncertainty over which version would turn up - the sublime version could send spectators and critics into raptures, but equally, the scratchy version could be painful to watch. Lara's Test career lends itself to a neat three-way partition - for the first five years the runs came easily and he averaged 60; then came a more difficult period, when he averaged less than 40 over four seasons, and while it wasn't all bleak - that memorable Barbados innings came during this period, as did a fantastic series against Australia - for large periods it was hugely disappointing. In his last five seasons - starting with the outstanding series against Sri Lanka in 2001-02 - he has been among the runs again. In his last Test series - against Pakistan late last year - he averaged 89.60, with two hundreds, including a double. Talk about finishing with a flourish.

You cannot compare Murali, Mc Grath and Lara as they are specialised in different category. They are all best in their
category.
