Zorab made her senior debut for the Netherlands in November 1997, playing a single ODI against Sri Lanka in Kandy.[1] That tour of Sri Lanka was part of the Dutch team's preparation for the World Cup, which was held in India the following month. At the World Cup, Zorab was selected in only one match, the quarter-final against Australia, where she conceded 23 runs from three overs without taking a wicket.[2] She did not appear in another fixture for the national team until June 2002, when New Zealand toured the Netherlands for a three-match ODI series.[1] Zorab opened the bowling in the first two matches, partnering first with Eugenie van Leeuwen and then with Jolet Hartenhof, but went wicketless as her team twice slumped to heavy defeats.[3][4] In the third match, the last of her career, she took 0/31 from seven overs,[5] consequently finishing her international career without a single wicket.[6]
