We preview England's semi-final with the Black Caps, with all the fate-tempting arrogance and bombast that will likely come back to bite us in the bum. However, we're saved by a match-winning contribution from The Cricketer journalist Nick Friend to take us through the data takeover of the modern game, exploring behind the scenes of associate cricket, and the brilliant work of the ACE Programme led by Ebony Rainford-Brent. 

Tuck in you hungry badgers, it's a feast of cricketing nourishment!
