Why Lizelle Lee ranks #157 in Cricket

Lizelle Lee ranks 157th among Cricket athletes on GOAT Rank and 1315th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 80.1 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 74, Peak 90, Longevity 78, Honours 74, Statistics 88. 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 2013–2022 with 10 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2021, 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 odi runs 3011, odi centuries 5, t20 international runs 1896, icc odi cricketer of the year awards 1.

Immediately ahead sits Jack Crawford on 80.1, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Andy Caddick on 80.0. 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.
