Fischer had a fine universal style of play, being very-very strong in all
aspects of the game.  Kasparov also has a universal style, but he has a far
stronger tactical ability than Fischer ever had.  Fischer in his day was
probably a better end game player than kasp.  If fischer was still in his prime
he might hold a draw in a shuffle match with Kasp.   It though is quite
illusionary however to imagine that anyone can play with the world top 5 or 10
players after laying of top rank level chess for 20+ years.
