Collingwood, whose side now face West Indies tomorrow in what is a must-win encounter to make the semi-finals, was confident of success when the Indians headed into the final three overs requiring 39. Although India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni and fellow big-hitter Yusuf Pathan were at the crease, he had left pace trio James Anderson, Stuart Broad and Ryan Sidebottom with an over apiece. "Once the last three overs came down, I knew I had my three big men to bowl and I was pretty confident from that point," he said. "I know what these guys can do and the skills they have got, and I have a lot of belief in them as captain. The pressure comes into it but I know they are very steady when it comes down to that pressure." On England's future prospects, he added: "There are only 18 hours before we are back on the field again, this will be fresh in our memories, and hopefully we can use the feelgood factor. It has been a little bit of a rollercoaster ride, a bit up and down, but we have to keep going for it because we are not going to win this tournament if we are complacent. Sidebottom celebrated his recall with two early strikes in defence of 154 and prevented India scoring the 19 required from the final over. "It was a great team effort," Sidebottom said.
