Written by Rohit Pawar

Zimbabwe have presented themselves a “huge chance” to make the semi-finals of the T20 World Cup after their giant-killing act against Pakistan, but captain Craig Ervine wants his team to stay focussed on their next battle against Bangladesh on Sunday.

The African side prevailed against 2009 champions Pakistan in a final-ball thriller in Perth on Thursday and are level with England on three points behind group leader India.

“Look, we’ve got a huge chance to make the semis,” the 37-year-old told reporters ahead of Sunday’s contest in Brisbane.

“It requires us to win against Bangladesh and also to beat Netherlands, and then we’ve got our final game against India, and depending on some other results.”

“I think we’re probably just looking at tomorrow and trying to concentrate on tomorrow’s game and putting in a good performance tomorrow, and then after that, then we can look at Netherlands and plan our way forward from there.”
