Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
Rampaul however struggled to live upto his expectations during the initial stages of his career. After being handed his international debut in 2003 in an ODI against Zimbabwe, Rampaul struggled to make an impact for his side. He averaged in excess of 1 wicket per games only once in his first 6 years when he picked 13 wickets in 10 matches in 2007. Rampaul was also notorious for giving away far too many extras a problem he has cut down with good effect in recent times.
Rampaul career and performance has often been dogged by injuries. However after his return from a leg injury in 2006, Rampaul has shown remarkable improvement moving into the spearhead role, along with Jerome Taylor.
He was picked in the WC squad in 2011 and made an impact picking up 5 wickets against hosts India and followed that up with a stand out performance against Pakistan in a 2 Test series by taking 11 wickets. In the series against India, Rampaul was key to West Indies with his ability to strike with the new ball and get the ball to move both ways. He ended with 10 wickets in the 3 match series that WI lost 1-0.
Constant injuries and inconsistent performances have affected Rampaul's career throughout all formats. Although, he is a fine exponent of the bouncer and yorker, he lacks swing to trouble quality opposition. Rampaul was grabbed by the Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2013 for the sixth IPL season.
He did not figure in the Test series in New Zealand but played ODIs in Auckland and Queenstown. Unfortunately he sustained a thumb fracture, which forced him to withdraw from the T20Is. Rampaul returned for the T20 Cup in Bangladesh but was edged out of the XI by the versatile
Krishmar Santokie. He was bought back by Bangalore in the 2014 Indian T20 League auctions.

Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
Ravi Rampaul was an enduring, if sporadic, presence in and around the West Indies team for the first two decades of the 21st century. Tall, strong and well-built, he moved the ball both ways at brisk pace, and could bowl long spells.
For a long time, it seemed Rampaul might never fulfil his potential at international level. He did little of note in his first six years in international cricket, partly due to injury: he was picked for the tours of Zimbabwe and South Africa in 2003-04, and played against England home and away later that year, but then was sidelined with injury for more than a year.
He played intermittently thereafter, but when belatedly given an opportunity towards the end of the 2011 World Cup, he made his mark with a five-for against India in Chennai, and then sustained his form in the home season, taking 11 wickets in the two-Test series against Pakistan, which was almost three times as many as he took in his first five Tests. Towards the end of that year, he smashed an unbeaten 86 runs against India from No. 10 in an ODI.
Rampaul was one of the key members of West Indies' 2012 World T20-winning side, but after the middle of the decade, injuries prevented him from making regular appearances for West Indies in all formats. All the more surprising then that he made an international return in 2021, playing his first games for West Indies in six years, in the T20 World Cup in the UAE.
