Why Hubert Ashton ranks #269 in Cricket
Hubert Ashton ranks 269th among Cricket athletes on GOAT Rank and 2455th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 79.4 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 74, Peak 86, Longevity 76, Honours 78, Statistics 86. 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 1919–1938 with 20 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1922, which sets the Peak component at 86. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 86 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes first-class runs 4147, first-class centuries 9, wisden cricketer of the year 1, first-class matches 90.
Immediately ahead sits Major Booth on 79.5, a gap of 0.1 points. Directly behind is Frederick Bull on 79.3. 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.
