After studying for a degree in English Literature, Ben started working part-time for CricViz in 2017, during the Women’s World Cup, then joined full-time the following year. Based in Oxford, he largely handles media and written analysis, as well as working alongside the Melbourne Stars in the Big Bash League. His soon-to-be-released book “Hitting Against the Spin: How Cricket Really Works” was co-written with England analyst Nathan Leamon, and uses CricViz data to explore untold truths and hidden wisdom about the game.
