Why Phil Bainbridge ranks #249 in Cricket
Phil Bainbridge ranks 249th among Cricket athletes on GOAT Rank and 1945th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 81.7 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 74, Peak 86, Longevity 86, Honours 78, 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 1977–1993 with 17 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1986, which sets the Peak component at 86. Statistics is the defining strength of the profile at 88 out of 100, and it carries 15% of the final score. The underlying career record includes first-class runs 13656, first-class wickets 348, first-class centuries 17, wisden cricketer of the year 1.
Immediately ahead sits Mustafizur Rahman on 81.7, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Mark Alleyne on 81.6. 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.
