Why Ravichandran Ashwin ranks #20 in Cricket
Ravichandran Ashwin ranks 20th among Cricket athletes on GOAT Rank and 208th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 90.5 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 90, Peak 94, Longevity 86, Honours 88, 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 2010–2024 with 14 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2015, which sets the Peak component at 94. Statistics is the defining strength of the profile at 96 out of 100, and it carries 15% of the final score. The underlying career record includes test wickets 537, five-wicket hauls 37, test runs 3503, t20 world cup titles 1.
Immediately ahead sits Stuart Broad on 90.5, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Cathryn Fitzpatrick on 90.5. 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.
