Why Shabnim Ismail ranks #72 in Cricket
Shabnim Ismail ranks 72nd among Cricket athletes on GOAT Rank and 454th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 88.0 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 86, Peak 94, Longevity 86, Honours 82, Statistics 94. 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 2007–2023 with 16 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2014, which sets the Peak component at 94. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 94 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes odi wickets 191, t20i wickets 97, fastest recorded delivery (km/h) 132.1, odi matches 127.
Immediately ahead sits Anya Shrubsole on 88.0, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Imran Khan 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.
