- New Zealand will be aiming for consecutive wins in men’s Tests against England for the first time since March 2018, following their 253-run victory in the second match of this series earlier this month (June 2026).
- New Zealand will be aiming for consecutive wins in men’s Tests against England in England for the first time in the history of the format, following their 253-run victory when they last met earlier this month (June 2026) which snapped a four-game losing run for them in such fixtures.
- England have won their last three men’s Tests at Trent Bridge in Nottingham; the last and only time they recorded a longer winning run at the venue in the format was a five-match span from June 2008 to July 2013.
- New Zealand have won 10 of their last 14 men’s Tests (D1 L3), with all three of their defeats in that span coming against England (x2 in 2024 and x1 in 2026); the last time they lost to an opposition other than England in the format was against Sri Lanka in September 2024.
- This men’s Test series between England and New Zealand is currently tied at 1-1 going into this final game; the last time England went on to lose a series at home in the format after winning the opening match was against New Zealand in August 1999 (1-2).
- New Zealand have won each of their last two multi-game men’s Test series away from home coming into this iteration against England; a win here would seal a third consecutive series victory on the road for the first time in the history of the format (also W2 from 1985 to 1986).
- Joe Root (England) is one away from surpassing Ricky Ponting (41 for Australia) for the outright third most hundreds of any player in men’s Test history (Sachin Tendulkar – 51 for India, Jacques Kallis – 45 for South Africa); his five Test centuries at Trent Bridge are his second most at any ground (8 at Lord’s) though he’s scored fewer than 35 runs in three of his last four innings there (3, 14, 122, 34).
- New Zealand trio Glenn Phillips (71.8% of 181 runs), Kyle Jamieson (68.1% of 91 runs) and Rachin Ravindra (65.5% of 238 runs) have recorded a higher percentage of their runs from boundaries than any other players in men’s Tests in 2026 (min. 75 runs scored).
- Ben Duckett (England) has hit a boundary once every 7.9 balls faced in men’s Tests since the beginning of 2025, the most frequent of any player in that time (min. 200 balls faced); he’s logged 30 boundaries across his last seven innings in the format (29 fours, 1 six).
- Matt Henry (New Zealand) has a bowling strike rate of 28.5 in this men’s Test series between England and New Zealand; only Shane Bond (21.6 in Zimbabwe in 2005) and Henry himself (21.9 in Zimbabwe in 2025) have logged better rates in Test series away from home for the Black Caps in the history of the format (min. 4 bowling innings).
