- Australia have recorded 10 victories in the men’s T20I format since the beginning of 2022 (also in 2010, 2018 and 2021), a win against England will make 2022 as Australia’s most successful year in the format.
- England have recorded 11 victories in the men’s T20I format in 2022 (also in 2021), a win against Australia will make the ongoing year England’s most successful in the format.
- This will be the fourth encounter between Australia and England in a men’s T20 World Cup game, with England winning the two most recent such encounters, while Australia won the first such game.
- 29% of the runs that England have scored in the ongoing men’s T20 World Cup have come in boundaries, the least of all participating teams in the tournament.
- 33% of the deliveries that Australia have bowled in the ongoing edition of the men’s t20 World Cup have been dot balls, the lowest of all participating teams of the tournament.
- England have a catch success rate of 87% after having caught 108 of their 124 chances in the men’s T20I format since the beginning of 2022, the best such rate of any full-member side.
- Jos Buttler is one away from winning his 100th cap for England in men’s T20I cricket (99 matches currently), in doing so he will become just the second English player after Eoin Morgan (115) and 19th player overall to get to the landmark.
- Ashton Agar (48 wickets) is two away from scalping his 50th wicket in men’s T20I cricket to become the fifth Australian bowler to do so in the format; he has taken at least two wickets on three different occasions against England in the seven innings he has bowled against them.
- Marcus Stoinis is set to play in his 50th T20I game for Australia and thus becoming the ninth player from the nation to do so; this will be Stoinis’ 12th game against England in the format, the most he has played against a single opponent.
