Profile for Craig Ervine. Profile Updated On 06 Wednesday July 2022 032947000000
Brother of Sean Ervine, Craig Ervine, hails from a family with strong cricketing roots - his father and uncle both played First-Class cricket and his younger brother Ryan has turned out for the Southern Rocks franchise.
Spells with English clubs Bexhill and Lordhood, and a spell with Irish club Lisburn in Belfast ensured that he got sufficient match practice and he returned to Zimbabwe, and signed up for the Southern Rocks. He was their leading run-scorer with 575 runs at 33.82 and topped their ODI run charts as well.
He was selected for the 2010 T20 WC in the Caribbean and soon made his ODI debut against India in the same year. A talented middle-order batsman, Ervine like his brother, is a solid accumulator of runs. He relies on placing the ball in the gaps and runs hard between the wickets. Ervine had a pretty good 2011 World Cup, but despite his efforts, his side couldn't reach the knock-out stages of the competition.
He also featured in the 2012 T20 WC in Sri Lanka but failed to make much of an impact. Just like any other Zimbabwe cricketer, Craig Ervine's career has suffered several bouts of inconsistency.
He has played four Tests since Zimbabwe's return to Test cricket but with the financial crisis in Zimbabwe cricket deepening, Craig Ervine spurned a winter contract in April 2013, seeking stability in UK, closely following the heels of his brother, Sean.
Ervine returned to Zimbabwe the following year and was picked for the Bangladesh tour in 2014. He played all three Tests and did not contribute much. Nonetheless, he performed on a consistent basis for his List A side Matabeleland Tuskers. On the back of some very good scores, Ervine was selected for the 2015 World Cup.
Interesting fact: Ervine suffered a freak accident when he was in his early teens. He slipped and fell on a piece of broken glass and it required a three hour corrective surgery on his right hand. Initial diagnosis suggested an amputation, but thankfully that wasn't required.
