Why Belinda Clark ranks #33 in Cricket
Belinda Clark ranks 33rd among Cricket athletes on GOAT Rank and 293rd of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 87.6 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 88, Peak 92, Longevity 82, Honours 88, Statistics 88. 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 1991–2005 with 14 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1996, which sets the Peak component at 92. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 92 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes world cup titles 2, odi runs 4844, odi average 47.49, highest odi score 229.
Immediately ahead sits Glenn McGrath on 87.3, a gap of -0.3 points. Directly behind is Anil Kumble on 85.9. 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.
