Stuart Binny – the all-round utility star of the Indian Premier League – carved out a decade-long story of grit, explosive hitting and canny medium-pace that still echoes in every IPL highlight reel. Across ten seasons from 2010 to 2019, the Rajasthan Royals mainstay stacked up 880 runs off just 683 balls at a brisk strike-rate of 128, peppering boundaries with 66 fours and 35 sixes. His highest score of 48 not out underlined the “finisher” tag that made him a sought-after asset in crunch chases. While the batting numbers sparkle, Binny’s quieter heroics came with the ball. In 63 bowling innings he snapped 22 wickets, never going for more than two scalps in a game yet maintaining a frugal economy of 7.66. That miserly rate, coupled with a strike-rate of 27.00 balls per wicket, turned many middle-over passages RR’s way. Not once did he concede a three-wicket burst, but the regular chip-in of breakthroughs often broke partnerships and flipped momentum. From the blue of Mumbai Indians in 2010 to the familiar pink of Rajasthan Royals in 2019, Binny’s journey across franchises mirrors the archetype of the modern-day T20 mercenary: dependable with bat, disciplined with ball, and indispensable in the dug-out.
