Vasani played minor matches for Uganda from 1956 to 1970.[1] In 1962 he played for East Africa in a minor match against an International XI at Nairobi, during which Basil D'Oliveira struck five sixes off of the bowling of Vasani or the Tanzania C. D. Patel.[2] Vasani made his debut in first-class cricket for an East African Invitation XI against a touring Marylebone Cricket Club side at Kampala in 1963. He made a further two first-class appearances for the Kenyan Coast Cricket Association against a touring Pakistan International Airlines team at Mombasa in 1964, before featuring for East Africa against the touring Indians at Kampala in 1967.[3] In three first-class matches, Vasani scored 31 runs with a highest score of 18,[4] while with his slow left-arm orthodox bowling he took 7 wickets at an average of 40.71, with best figures of 3 for 68.[5]
