Before my own blog was launched, I contributed to the BBC TMS blog. Here are some of those entries:

On top of the world
Two days after the World Twenty20 Final and I am still absolutely gobsmacked. The magnitude of what happened over the last few days hadn't really sunk in until breakfast yesterday.

Perfect setting for semi-final
So we're through to the Twenty20 semi-finals and will be playing at The Oval on Friday - for me, it's the perfect setting, my home ground, right where I grew up.

More competitive, more positive, fewer overs
It's really good to be back with the girls again. Although we have trained and played warm-up games together, there is always a buzz and excitement when you meet up as a group for the start of a tournament.

Team unity key to success
To say the past few days have been hectic would be somewhat of an understatement, although there was a moment when we thought we had lost the World Cup trophy on our return to England!

Dreaming of glory
Sunday is a massive day for all of us - without a doubt it will be the biggest day of our cricketing lives and something we have all been working so hard for. The majority of the England squad played in the 2005 World Cup when we didn't reach the final and I know that hurt.

More discipline, more aggression, more fabulous
So we arrived in Canberra after a long three-hour drive and got straight into our training session in preparation for our first World Cup match after the two warm-up games.

World Cup dream becomes reality
The start of the World Cup is finally here. This is something I have been building up to for the last five months since being selected, dreaming and thinking about it every spare moment and I am really excited.
