	Description:		Cricket is a game layered in statistics, mythology and history. But in their new book journalist Tim Wigmore and sports economist Stefan Szymanski use data and statistical analysis to understand the changes the game is going through and predict how it will grow in future. The book Crickonomics: The Anatomy of Modern Cricket touches on all aspects of the game, from the rise and impact of Twenty20 cricket, how India came to dominate the game both on and off the pitch and the reason behind New Zealand cricket's recent success. Kathryn talks to Tim about his love of cricket, how they came together to write the book and some of the most interesting discoveries in the data.
