Craig Ervine Urges Zimbabwe To Play The Game Not The Occasion Against England

By AFP News May 22, 2025 • 08:45 AM View: 696

Zimbabwe captain Craig Ervine wants his side to focus on the task at hand rather than the sense of occasion when they face England in a Test for the first time in over 20 years.

This week's four-day match at Trent Bridge marks the first Test between the two nations since 2003, a series that featured James Anderson's debut and Nasser Hussain's final victory as England skipper.
