He ran in 10.08 in Trieste in July 2019 and won a bronze medal in the 4×100 metres relay at the African Games in Rabat the following month.[1][2]
In March 2022, Dlodlo was banned retrospectively for two-and-a-half years after testing positive for "testosterone and its related compounds". South Africa was stripped of its 4x100m gold medal, won in Chorzów, Poland when Dlodlo was part of the team.[3]
