Regex pattern for multiple digits

Hello,

I need to construct a pattern to match the below string (especially the timestamp at the beginning)

20101222100436_temp.dat

The below pattern works [0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]_temp.dat

However I am trying find if there are any other better representations.
I tried [\d]{14}, but it did not work.

I am on RedHat Linux 2.6.

Thanks.
