Reminiscent of Pakistani fast bowler Waqar Younis, Dawlat Zardan can notch speeds up to 145 Kmph combined with great accuracy. He had climbed up to the 8th spot in ICC T20 rankings in January 2016 after an impressive run just prior to the T20 World Cup. A hit-the-deck-hard bowler, Zardan has a very aggressive approach toward the game and is a wicket-taker which is evident from his ODI and T20 stats :

Dawlat Zardan's stats

He has been in sublime form, picking up 11 wickets in the Shpageeza Cricket League (SCL 2017) playing for Band-e-Amir Region.

He was a part of the player pool in IPL 2017 auctions but remained unsold. However, Zadran would hope to see some change in fortunes in IPL 2018 auctions given his recent form and overall consistency.
