Why Heather Knight ranks #60 in Cricket
Heather Knight ranks 60th among Cricket athletes on GOAT Rank and 397th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 88.4 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 84, Peak 92, Longevity 86, Honours 90, 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 2010–present with 15 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2017, 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 1, matches as england captain 200, odi runs 3500, odi centuries 5.
Immediately ahead sits Beth Mooney on 88.4, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Hanif Mohammad on 88.4. 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.
