England's T20 World Cup preparations will not be affected by the last-minute switch from Bangladesh to the United Arab Emirates, says captain Heather Knight."We’ve had Bangladesh in our heads for a long time, probably for the last couple of years, in terms of getting the players ready and building the squad.
One of the more obvious differences in Sharjah and Dubai will be smaller crowds, which Knight says is something she will talk to the players about. England begin their campaign on 5 October against Bangladesh in Sharjah, before facing 2023 finalists South Africa, Scotland and West Indies in the initial group stage before the semi-finals.The main omission from England's squad for the T20 World Cup was fast bowler Lauren Filer, with spinner Linsey Smith selected instead.
