Why Learie Constantine ranks #234 in Cricket

Learie Constantine ranks 234th among Cricket athletes on GOAT Rank and 1820th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 82.2 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 80, Peak 90, Longevity 80, Honours 78, 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 1923–1939 with 17 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1930, 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 test wickets 58, first-class wickets 439, first-class runs 4475, tests played 18.

Immediately ahead sits Jack Bond on 82.4, a gap of 0.2 points. Directly behind is Percy Chapman 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.
