- Australia have won their last four men’s ODIs on the bounce against England after having won only two of their previous 10 meetings in the format; the last time Australia enjoyed a longer winning streak against England in men’s ODIs was a seven-game streak from January 2014 to September 2015.
- England won by eight wickets with 107 balls remaining when they faced Australia at the semi-final of the 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup, their first win against Australia at the tournament since 1992 after losing all four clashes between 2003 and the 2019 group stage.
- England have lost five games at the 2023 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup, their most defeats at a single edition of the tournament; their current four-game losing streak is also the longest they have ever endured at the tournament.
- Australia have won their last four men’s ODIs in a row – despite winning the toss only once – after having won only once in their eight previous games in the format; they’ve scored 360+ runs in each of their last three games after reaching 300 only once in their nine previous fixtures.
- England have dropped just five catches at the 2023 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup, fewer than any other team in the competition and five fewer than Australia (11); England’s catch success rate of 84% is also more than 10 percentage points higher than Australia (73%).
- Australia have scored at a strike rate of 110 or more during the opening powerplay of each of their last four men’s ODIs, including 118 runs scored during the powerplay of their most recent game (vs New Zealand); only once in their six prior games in the format did they do so.
- David Warner has made a good connection on 80% or higher of his balls faced in his last three ODI innings – including a rate of 91% in his most recent innings against New Zealand – after reaching that mark only once in his 25 previous games in the format.
- Sam Curran (England) has a bowling economy of 8.1 runs per over at the 2023 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup, the highest of any player from the England and Australia squads; he’s taken just two wickets and conceded 140 turns at the tournament and not taken any wickets from 16 overs in his last two games against Australia in the format.
- Jos Buttler (England) is 72 runs shy of reaching 5,000 runs scored in ODIs, a feat previously achieved by only five players for England in ODIs; he is also only 32 away from reaching 1,000 runs against Australia in the format.
- Steven Smith (995) is five runs shy of becoming the fifth Australian to score 1,000 runs at the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup (Ricky Ponting, David Warner, Adam Gilchrist, Mark Waugh); he is also set to play his 31st game at the tournament, equalling Gilchrist for the fourth most for Australia.
