Sultan Mohammed Zarawani (born 24 January 1961, Dubai, United Arab Emirates) is a former United Arab Emirates cricketer. Regarded as one of the worst cricketers of all time, he played seven one-day internationals for United Arab Emirates, all in the 1996 Cricket World Cup after which he was banned for life when he criticized the officials of the Emirates Cricket Board.
He is best known for facing South African fast bowler Allan Donald without a helmet at the 1996 Cricket World Cup and being hit by a fierce bouncer. Despite the blow, Zarawani still continued to refuse the offer of a helmet but only lasted eight more balls before he was dismissed.
