The Latest: England leaving Tokyo to avoid typhoon

TOKYO (AP) — The Latest on Day 21 at the typhoon-affected Rugby World Cup (all times local):

2:35 p.m.

England is leaving Tokyo for Miyazaki on the southern island of Kyushu to avoid Typhoon Hagibis.

The England-France pool match scheduled for Saturday in Yokohama was cancelled by Rugby World Cup organizers because that is when and where the approaching storm, the most powerful this year, is expected to make landfall.

Miyazaki hosted England’s pre-tournament training camp.

It’s also not far from Oita, where England’s quarterfinal against Wales or Australia is scheduled next week.

“We’ll have a short camp in Miyazaki and then we’re off to Oita,” Jones said. “We have an exceptional record in two-week preparations.”
