Confident skipper Craig Ervine said on Saturday that Zimbabwe had a “huge” chance to reach the T20 World Cup semi-finals, praising new coach Dave Houghton for instilling belief in the team. The African nation, who came through the first round in Australia to make the Super 12, pulled off a stunning one-run upset over Pakistan on Thursday.

It came on the back of them sharing the points with South Africa from a washed-out game, leaving them level on three points with the Proteas and one behind Group 2 leaders India who have won both their matches.
“Look, we’ve got a huge chance to make the semis. Again, it requires us to win against Bangladesh and also to beat The Netherlands, and then we’ve got our final game against India, and depending on some other results,” said Ervine.

“The guys, obviously got their tails up. We’ve got a lot of confidence obviously with the win against Pakistan, but we just know how fragile this game is and how quickly it can turn around. But we can’t look too far ahead right now, we’re just trying to concentrate on tomorrow’s game,” he added.
