Sultan Mohammed Zarawani (Arabic: سلطان محمد زاروني; born 24 January 1961) is a former Emirati cricketer.
Under his leadership, the UAE won the 1994 ICC Trophy in Kenya which earned them qualification for the 1996 Cricket World Cup.
He is best known for facing South African fast bowler Allan Donald wearing a sunhat rather than a helmet at the 1996 Cricket World Cup and being hit by a fierce bouncer.
Despite the blow on his head in UAE's opening match against South Africa, he continued to play in the remainder of the tournament and also went onto lead the side throughout the global showpiece.
[8][7] The only locally produced player on the 1996 side, Zarawani was purportedly held in very high esteem by his teammates, of whom there were allegedly fewer than the pricey motor cars in his possession.
