Coach Eddie Jones confirmed that England will leave Tokyo for Miyazaki.

England's Rugby World Cup game against France has been cancelled due to Super Typhoon Hagibis.

Coach Eddie Jones confirmed that England will leave Tokyo for Miyazaki, the location for England's pre-tournament training camp.

"We found out officially this morning but there were rumours flying around last night so we were glued to our phone last night," Jones said.

"Assessment will be made after the typhoon has passed. We are advising all fans in Toyota, Yokohama and Tokyo to stay inside on Saturday.

"We looked pretty exhaustively at all the options. Important to note is that where we are is in accordance with what we said we would do before the tournament.

"Doing that on this scale, so many teams to move around, and to be able to deliver safely the exit of 12 teams, we couldn't guarantee contingency plans consistently. If we can't do it for all, we can't do it for any."
