Why Hayley Matthews ranks #81 in Cricket

Hayley Matthews ranks 81st among Cricket athletes on GOAT Rank and 500th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 87.6 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 86, Peak 94, Longevity 80, Honours 86, Statistics 94. 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 2014–present with 12 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2022, 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 t20 world cup titles 1, t20i runs 3000, t20i wickets 120, odi centuries 6.

Immediately ahead sits Yuvraj Singh on 87.5, a gap of -0.1 points. Directly behind is Chamari Athapaththu on 87.5. 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.
