England Lions have cancelled their scheduled second 50-over match against Pakistan Shaheens in Abu Dhabi because of security concerns in the region.
US and Israeli forces attacked Iran on Saturday morning in what the two countries described as a "pre-emptive" strike against a Tehran government intent on developing nuclear weapons.
The attack prompted retaliation from Iran, with missiles reported to have targeted Israel and countries across the Middle East.
The England and Wales Cricket Board announced on Saturday evening that following official Government advice, the planned game at the Zayed Cricket Stadium would now not take place, with the travel arrangements for England Women's trip to Abu Dhabi next week also delayed.
"The safety and security of our teams and staff is our top priority," a statement from the ECB read.
"We are in contact with security experts and the Government in relation to current events in the Middle East, and are following official advice.
"Tomorrow's second 50-over game between England Men's Lions and Pakistan Shaheens in Abu Dhabi will no longer go ahead, and we are delaying the departure of England Women for their proposed trip to Abu Dhabi next week.
"We will continue to monitor and assess the situation and official advice in relation to the future of these trips.
"England Men will travel to Mumbai for the ICC Men's T20 World Cup semi-final as planned."
