Why Arthur Carr ranks #225 in Cricket

Arthur Carr ranks 225th among Cricket athletes on GOAT Rank and 1673rd of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 82.9 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 76, Peak 86, Longevity 88, Honours 78, Statistics 90. Those categories are normalised against the full Cricket reference universe of 294 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 1910–1935 with 26 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1923, which sets the Peak component at 86. Statistics is the defining strength of the profile at 90 out of 100, and it carries 15% of the final score. The underlying career record includes first-class runs 21051, first-class centuries 45, county championships as captain 1, tests played 11.

Immediately ahead sits Bevan Congdon on 82.9, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Adam Voges on 82.7. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
