I’ve managed to make some runs in two of the games so far which is obviously satisfying but, unfortunately, far outweighed by the fact that we are two-one down in the series after a horrible game at St.George’s Park.

We simply took too long to read the conditions and adapt to them. A couple of us at the top of the order got out to ‘soft’ dismissals – none more than me – which made things especially disappointing.

The Champions Trophy is my first experience of an ICC world tournament and I can promise you it has felt very different, and very special from the moment the squad gathered.

In a bilateral series against another country there is inevitably a sense of familiarity that comes after three or four games. You only need to prepare once for the bowlers you will be facing and the batsmen you will be bowling to. Here we face three very different teams in the group stage, although – to use an old cliché - we really are taking it one game at a time!
