Nat Sciver-Brunt Withdraws from England Training Camp

Nat Sciver-Brunt, who assumed the role of England captain in April of last year, has departed from England's training camp in South Africa due to family reasons.

She is not anticipated to return to Pretoria, where England are currently engaged in an intra-squad series as part of their preparation for the upcoming home T20 World Cup scheduled for this summer.

England's team is utilizing this rare break in their schedule to train and participate in five intra-squad matches in Pretoria. The team has not played any matches since the World Cup concluded in October.

Originally, the training camp was planned to be held in Abu Dhabi; however, it was relocated to South Africa due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.
