Zadran took his best bowling figures of 4-24 on his ODI debut against the Netherlands in 2009. Former Afghanistan fast bowler Shapoor Zadran, who hit the winning runs to seal his country's first World Cup victory, has died at the age of 38.

The Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) said it was with "profound grief and deep sorrow" that Zadran has passed away, with the left-armer being treated for a rare immune condition in New Delhi. Zadran played in 44 ODIs and 36 T20 matches for his country between 2009 and 2020, taking 80 wickets.

One of the highlights of his career was hitting the winning runs when Afghanistan beat Scotland to claim their first World Cup triumph in 2015. "Shapoor Zadran was one of the foundation-laying figures of Afghanistan cricket, whose dedication, passion, and unwavering commitment played a vital role in the rise and development of the game in our country," said the ACB in a statement.
