Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
However, there was never really a spark in Binny's performances, save his record-breaking figures of 6/4 against Bangladesh which remains the best figures by an Indian bowler in ODIs. It was evident that Binny was more of a workhorse cricketer with limitations. The main issue though, like it was many of the all-rounders before him, was the fact that they weren't specializing in any particular department. Binny couldn't be selected as a pure batsman or a bowler alone - a quality which was a must for a genuine all-rounder. Nevertheless, India were needing players with multiple skills and he got the nod for a while before being axed.
Thus, as far as a national call up is concerned, the chances are more or less done and dusted for Binny. The fact that he is in his 30s now doesn't help his cause and also the emergence of young all-rounders like Hardik Pandya and more recently, Vijay Shankar has meant that Binny has been out of the reckoning. Nevertheless, he continues to be an important figure in domestic cricket and can also be counted as a valuable commodity in the IPL. In 2018, injuries coupled by poor form haunted Binny which meant that he also fell off the radar of Karnataka's selectors. Having been pushed to the corner, the all-rounder ended his 16-year long association with Karnataka cricket and moved to Nagaland for the 2019-2020 season.
IPL through the years
One of the giant all-rounders in India’s domestic circuit, Stuart Binny has been a prominent figure in the IPL as a hard-hitting all rounder who bowls medium pace. He’s been a part of multiple franchises although it’s with Rajasthan Royals that he has enjoyed most success. The Karnataka lad finally got a chance with his native franchise, the Royal Challengers Bangalore but it was a short-lived stint as he got
released at the fresh auctions in 2018. The Royals got back Binny in a bid to bolster their domestic strength.
Binny has never really had a standout IPL season bar the one in 2013 where he was extremely influential for the Rajasthan Royals down the order. Despite not producing a single half century, he averaged over 30 with close to 300 runs at a fantastic strike rate. That was the period when he also got into reckoning for the Indian team but over the years, his impact has reduced considerably. He still continues to be a
key figure in domestic cricket and the Karnataka Premier League last year showed that he still has some fuel left in the tank.

Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
Much like his father Roger, Stuart Binny is a hard-hitting batsman in the lower middle order and a bowler of medium-paced swing and seam with a distinctive leap into a side-on delivery stride. He struggled initially to find a regular place in the Karnataka line-up, and signed up for the Indian Cricket League in 2007. He made a name for himself as one of the tournament's premier allrounders, playing for Hyderabad Heroes and India XI.
After two seasons in the unsanctioned tournament, Binny accepted the BCCI's amnesty offer and quit the ICL. He returned to the Karnataka squad and established himself as an important member of the side, often scoring runs in crisis situations and chipping in regularly as a partnership-breaker. He was picked in the India A squad for the tour of South Africa in 2013 and was rewarded with a national call-up later that year with the ODI squad to New Zealand. He had a solid domestic season in 2013-14, scoring 443 runs at 43.22 and taking 14 wickets at 32.64, playing a key role in Karnataka's storming run to the Ranji Trophy title. Selected for an ODI tour of Bangladesh, he surprised everyone - possibly including himself - with his figures of 6 for 4, the best by an Indian bowler in ODIs, in the second ODI in Mirpur.
Binny was a surprise inclusion in the squad for the five-Test series in England in 2014, and with India looking for an extra bowling option, he made his debut in the first Test at Trent Bridge. There was little help for him on an uncharacteristically dry and slow track, and he finished wicketless in the 10 overs he bowled, but he played a crucial role with the bat in India's second innings, calming their nerves after a mini-collapse on the final day and helping save the Test with an innings of 78. Binny was dismissed cheaply in both innings of the second Test at Lord's, and was left out for the third and fourth Tests. He returned at The Oval, went wicketless again, and was the not-out batsman on 25 when India slumped to 94 all out in their final innings of the series.
Binny remained a regular in India's ODI squads, though his playing opportunities were limited. He went to the 2015 World Cup, but didn't get to play a match. He was called up midway through the Test tour of Sri Lanka later that year, and performed creditably with the ball to play a small but important role in India's 2-1 series win. India picked him for the second Test of the home series against South Africa later in the year at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, his home ground, but rain washed out the last four days, restricting his contribution to a mere three overs.
Binny was a regular member of the Rajasthan Royals line-up from 2011 to 2015, and, following the team's suspension ahead of the 2016 season, was signed up by his hometown franchise Royal Challengers Bangalore for INR 2 crore.
