Why Moeen Ali ranks #181 in Cricket
Moeen Ali ranks 181st among Cricket athletes on GOAT Rank and 1342nd of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 84.7 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 78, Peak 90, Longevity 84, Honours 86, Statistics 88. 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 2014–2023 with 10 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2018, 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 204, test runs 3094, world cup titles 1, t20 world cup titles 1.
Immediately ahead sits B. S. Chandrasekhar on 84.7, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Bill Bowes on 84.7. 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.
