It's been a tough time with the whole Zimbabwe situation but it's pulled us together a lot more and the game against Pakistan was a fantastic occasion.
We went out there and gave them a good stuffing!
The atmosphere around the dressing room is fantastic and we want to keep the morale high and continue on into this World Cup.
It was a great performance by everyone, especially Jimmy Anderson.
I am very happy with my game at the moment
It was another man-of-the-match performance by him and I think he'll be selling a few watches in Burnley when he gets back.
We were in a tough situation when I came in, but everybody had scored really quickly so I didn't have to go for the big shots until the last couple of overs.
I've been trying hard not to change my game too much.
I like to knock it around, run hard and get ones and twos, and that's what I did against Pakistan.
I might seem calm out there but I'm very nervous before I go out to bat.
But I just seem to be analysing the game better than I used to.
I used to panic in certain situations, but at the moment I know my game pretty well and I know my mental state.
My ambition has always been to play Test cricket for England, and that is why I want to become a better player.
I'm learning all the time and I've got a hell of a long way to go.
But I want to keep on improving and keep working on my game, because there's a lot more to come from Paul Collingwood.
