Craig Richard Ervine (born 19 August 1985) is a Zimbabwean cricketer. Ervine is a left-handed batsman who has impressed in the Zimbabwe domestic leagues.

Ervine has played for the Midlands cricket team in Zimbabwe and represented the Southern Rocks topping the batting averages in his maiden season.

In February 2010, Ervine signed for the Zimbabwean domestic circuit with Southern Rocks. On debut against the Mid West Rhinos, Ervine made a top score of 100; which is his highest in first-class cricket, and he averages over 50 in limited-overs cricket. He is a talented prospect for the batting of a relatively weak but slowly improving Zimbabwe lineup.
