NOTTINGHAM, UNITED KINGDOM, MAY 22 (AFP/APP/DNA):Zimbabwe captain Craig Ervine won the toss and elected to field in a one-off Test against England at Trent Bridge on Thursday.

The overcast conditions in Nottingham promised to aid a Zimbabwe attack featuring 6ft 8in paceman Blessing Muzarabani, who has already taken 26 Test wickets at an average of under 19 this year.

“Due to the overhead conditions, hopefully we can utilise the first session and get a little bit out of the ball,” said Ervine at the toss.

Zimbabwe came into this four-day match on the back of a 138-run thrashing by a County Select XI in their lone warm-up game at Grace Road.
