Women’s T20 World Cup 2026: England’s Nat Sciver-Brunt ruled out for next two games due to calf strain


England Women’s captain Nat Sciver-Brunt is set to miss the next two fixtures of the Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 due to injury.

The all-rounder suffered a left calf muscle strain, in a similar location to her recent injury, while batting against Ireland Women in the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup group match in Southampton on Tuesday. She retired herself out as a precautionary measure.

Following a scan on Wednesday and further assessment by the England medical team, it has been decided that she will sit out England’s next two games against Scotland and West Indies.

“Nat will continue to be monitored and assessed by the England medical team as she undertakes her rehab while remaining in the squad,” the England and Wales Cricket Board clarified.

Vice-captain Charlie Dean will lead the side on the field in Sciver-Brunt’s absence during the next two matches.
