Why Mohammad Yousuf ranks #75 in Cricket
Mohammad Yousuf ranks 75th among Cricket athletes on GOAT Rank and 461st of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 87.9 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 86, Peak 98, Longevity 82, Honours 80, Statistics 96. 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 1998–2010 with 13 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2006, which sets the Peak component at 98. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 98 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes test runs 7530, test average 52.29, test centuries 24, test runs in 2006 1788.
Immediately ahead sits MS Dhoni on 87.9, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Arjuna Ranatunga on 87.9. 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.
