About Rohan
Rohan has spent a decade around cricket, first as a reporter on the Mumbai club and Ranji Trophy circuit, then as a data analyst building ball-by-ball models for fantasy cricket. He joined Malik Mumbai to lead cricket coverage and now signs off every IPL and WPL prediction on the site.
His writing leans on match phases: how a side scores in the powerplay, who bowls the death overs and which match-ups swing a chase. He is just as likely to tell readers to skip a market as to back one, and his guides on betting discipline are among the most read on the blog.
