Why Dennis Amiss ranks #150 in Cricket
Dennis Amiss ranks 150th among Cricket athletes on GOAT Rank and 1155th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 85.7 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 80, Peak 88, Longevity 92, Honours 78, Statistics 94. 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 1960–1987 with 28 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1972, which sets the Peak component at 88. Statistics is the defining strength of the profile at 94 out of 100, and it carries 15% of the final score. The underlying career record includes first-class centuries 102, first-class runs 43423, test runs 3612, test centuries 11.
Immediately ahead sits Terry Alderman on 85.7, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Martin Bicknell on 85.7. 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.
