- West Indies have won each of their last two multigame bilateral men’s ODI series against England; the last and only time they recorded a longer winning run against them in such series was their first six iterations in the history of the format (September 1973 to March 1986).

- England have won their last six men’s ODIs at Edgbaston in Birmingham, their longest winning run at the venue in the history of the format; their last defeat there was a nine-wicket loss against India (2 September 2014).
- West Indies have scored 59.2% of their runs from boundaries in men’s ODIs in 2025, the best rate of any full-member side this year; indeed, their 2.30 runs per scoring shot is more than any other team in the format this year.
- England have recorded a catch success rate of 86% (24/28) in men’s ODIs in 2025, the best of any full-member side this year; although, their bowling economy rate (6.6) is the highest of any team.
- Shai Hope (17) is one away from surpassing Desmond Haynes (17) for the outright third most hundreds for West Indies in men’s ODI history (Chris Gayle – 25, Brian Lara – 19); he’s scored 320 runs at an average of 106.7 across his last six ODI innings against England, including two centuries and a 60+ score in that span.
