Sultana developed her cricket through the domestic structure administered by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), which oversees women's cricket in the country. Like many women cricketers of her generation, she progressed through age-group and zonal competitions before earning selection to the senior India side.
Sultana has appeared for India in international fixtures across formats organised under the auspices of the International Cricket Council (ICC). As a left-arm spinner, her primary role has been to provide control and wicket-taking options in the middle overs.
At domestic level, she has played in the inter-state and inter-zonal tournaments that form the backbone of women's cricket in India, including the senior women's one-day and Twenty20 competitions.
Sultana belongs to the cohort of Indian women cricketers who played during the period in which women's cricket in India was integrated under the BCCI (following the merger of the Women's Cricket Association of India with the BCCI in 2006), helping bridge the earlier era of the WCAI with the increased professionalisation that followed.
