Why B. S. Chandrasekhar ranks #132 in Cricket
B. S. Chandrasekhar ranks 132nd among Cricket athletes on GOAT Rank and 803rd of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 84.7 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 82, Peak 94, Longevity 82, Honours 76, Statistics 92. Those categories are normalised against the full Cricket reference universe of 297 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1963–1979 with 15 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1971, which sets the Peak component at 94. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 94 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes test wickets 242, tests played 58, five-wicket hauls 16, ten-wicket matches 2.
Immediately ahead sits AB de Villiers on 84.7, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Sophie Ecclestone on 84.6. 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.
