Sean Michael Ervine (born 6 December 1982) is a Zimbabwean former cricketer. Ervine played as an all-rounder who batted left-handed and bowled right-arm medium pace.

Ervine was born at Harare in Zimbabwe and played for his country in the 2003 Cricket World Cup but became one of the cricketers who rebelled against the Zimbabwe Cricket Union, and left the country in May 2004 for a new life in Australia. He subsequently made his way to England, playing for Hampshire County Cricket Club between 2005 and 2018. In September 2018, he retired from all forms of cricket.[1] After retiring from cricket, he took up golf, with the aim to qualify for the MENA Golf Tour.[2] He is currently playing for Minster (Sheppey) Cricket Club.
