Why Mohammad Asif ranks #164 in Cricket

Mohammad Asif ranks 164th among Cricket athletes on GOAT Rank and 1743rd of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 74.8 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 72, Peak 90, Longevity 62, Honours 66, 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 2005–2010 with 6 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2007, 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 106, test bowling average 24.36, odi wickets 46, five-wicket hauls 7.

Immediately ahead sits Liam Dawson on 74.9, a gap of 0.1 points. Directly behind is Naseem Shah on 73.2. 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.
