- Sri Lanka have won six of their last seven men’s ODIs (L1), as many as they had won in their 15 completed games prior; their only loss in this span came by a margin of six wickets against Bangladesh in the first game of this ongoing series.
- Bangladesh have lost each of their last three multi-game bilateral men’s ODI series, a win on Monday will see them record their first such series win since beating Ireland 2-0 in May 2023.
- Sri Lanka have won each of their last three multi-game bilateral men’s ODI series, a win in the third game of this series will see the Lions triumph in four straight such series only for the second time in the history of the format, having previously done so between August 1992 and July 1993.
- Sri Lanka have registered a batting strong connection rate of higher than 10% in each of their last six men’s ODI matches, having managed to do so just once in their six games prior in the format.
- Since the start of 2023 in men’s ODIs, Bangladesh bowlers have conceded runs at an economy rate of 4.22 during the opening Powerplay, the best such rate of any full-member side during this period; Sri Lanka bowlers have conceded an economy rate of 4.9 during the opening Powerplay in the same period.
- Charith Asalanka (Sri Lanka) has a batting average of 72.3 in men’s ODIs against Bangladesh, his highest against any single opponent and the second highest by any Sri Lanka batter against the Tigers (min. 5 innings) behind Marvan Atapattu (90.4); Asalanka scored 91 in the 2nd game of this ongoing series.
- Mushfiqur Rahim (3900 runs) is 100 away from becoming just the second batter to score 4,000 runs in men’s ODIs in Bangladesh; Rahim has scored five tons at home, with the most recent such knock coming against Ireland on 20 March 2023.
- Wanindu Hasaranga (Sri Lanka) has logged a bowling strike rate of 21.4 in men’s ODIs since the start of 2023, the second highest among bowlers from a full-member side to have bowled at least 50 overs in the format in this period (Mohammed Shami – 18.5).
- Shoriful Islam (Bangladesh) has taken at least two wickets in each of his last four men’s ODIs at home; his bowling strike rate of 26.5 at home is the third highest of any Bangladesh player to have bowled in at least five such innings.
