    England Women Relocate UAE Camp To South Africa Following Regional Security Concerns

    By IANS News March 06, 2026 • 19:22 PM View: 275
    United Arab Emirates: England Women's cricket team have relocated their pre-season training camp from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to Pretoria in South Africa due to escalating tensions in the Middle East following recent military developments in the Gulf region.

    The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) had originally planned for the squad to travel to the UAE earlier this week. However, the trip was cancelled after the security situation in the region deteriorated following US-Israeli air strikes on Iran and subsequent retaliatory strikes by Iran across the Gulf.

    The ECB had earlier also cancelled the England Lions’ ongoing series in the UAE involving Pakistan Shaheens amid the same concerns, as authorities continue to monitor the situation and ensure the safety of players and staff.
