Why Johnny Douglas ranks #166 in Cricket
Johnny Douglas ranks 166th among Cricket athletes on GOAT Rank and 1234th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 85.3 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 80, Peak 90, Longevity 86, Honours 86, 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 1901–1930 with 30 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1911, which sets the Peak component at 90. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 90 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes olympic boxing gold medals 1, tests as captain 18, first-class wickets 1893, first-class runs 24531.
Immediately ahead sits Trevor Bailey on 85.3, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Bill Alley on 85.3. 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.
