- Australia have won eight of their last 10 women’s T20I matches against India and are on a five-match winning streak against them when they’ve batted second on the day.
- This will be the second meeting between Australia and India in a women’s T20I at Adelaide Oval and the first in more than a decade; India won by five wickets on 26 January 2016, Harmanpreet Kaur (46) top scoring with the bat on the day.
- Australia have won 18 of their last 20 women’s T20Is and have batted first eight times in their last 10 matches in the format; though, their only loss in their last eight matches was against India in the first match of this current series.
- The winner of this match will win the bilateral women’s T20I series; Australia have won four of their five previous bilateral multi-game series against India in the format and haven’t lost such a series since January 2016.
- Australia have won their last two women’s T20Is at Adelaide Oval, but just three of their six completed matches there overall; indeed, among venues in Australia where they’ve played more than once, only at Bellerive Oval (33%) do they have a lower win rate than they do at Adelaide Oval (50%).
- India lost by 19 runs in their last women’s T20I, ending a six-match winning run in the format; in fact, they’ll be aiming to avoid back-to-back losses in the format for the first time since October 2024.
- Beth Mooney (Australia) has scored 959 runs in women’s T20Is between Australia and India and is 41 away from becoming the first player to score 1,000 runs in matches between the teams in this format; though, she’s reached 41+ runs in only three of her last 10 innings against India.
- Deepti Sharma (India) is the most prolific wicket taker in women’s T20I history with 153 wickets to her name; however, her 24.4 bowling average in Australia is her second worst rate in any country where she’s bowled at least seven innings (25.3 in England).
- Shafali Verma (India) has scored 26 runs by drive shots in this current women’s T20I series between Australia and India, the most of any player in the series; she’s scored 486 career runs against Australia and needs just 14 more to become the third India player to score 500 runs against them in women’s T20Is (Harmanpreet Kaur, Smriti Mandhana).
- Ashleigh Gardner (Australia) has taken eight wickets across her last five T20I innings, including figures of 3/22 in the second match of this ongoing series between Australia and India, and has 14 wickets to her name from her last nine innings against India.
