Why Cuthbert Burnup ranks #255 in Cricket
Cuthbert Burnup ranks 255th among Cricket athletes on GOAT Rank and 2106th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 81.0 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 76, Peak 88, Longevity 80, Honours 76, 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 1895–1907 with 13 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1903, which sets the Peak component at 88. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 88 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes first-class runs 13614, first-class centuries 30, county championships won 1, seasons played 13.
Immediately ahead sits Ben Duckett on 81.0, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Ian Austin on 81.0. 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.
