Why Jack Bond ranks #233 in Cricket
Jack Bond ranks 233rd among Cricket athletes on GOAT Rank and 1770th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 82.4 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 76, Peak 86, Longevity 86, Honours 82, Statistics 84. 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 1955–1974 with 20 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1967, 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 gillette cup titles 3, john player league titles 2, first-class runs 12125, first-class matches 362.
Immediately ahead sits Colin Bland on 82.4, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Learie Constantine on 82.2. 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.
