- England defeated West Indies 3-1 when they last met in a multigame bilateral men’s T20I series (November 2024); they will be aiming for back-to-back series wins against them for the first time in the history of the format.
- England lost their most recent multigame bilateral men’s T20I series (1-4 v India in February 2025); they will be looking to avoid consecutive series defeats in the format for the first time since July 2022.
- West Indies have lost each of their last three multigame bilateral men’s T20I series; the last time they recorded a longer losing run in such series was a span of four from March to December in 2019.
- England will be aiming for consecutive wins in men’s T20Is at Riverside Ground for the first time in the history of the format, following their seven-wicket victory against New Zealand in their most recent match at the venue (30 August 2023).
- West Indies have recorded a collective batting average of 20.2 during the death overs (17th-20th) in men’s T20Is since the beginning of 2024, the best of any Test playing country in that time; although, they’ve recorded 2.68 runs per scoring shot in this category, the second most of any team (India – 2.71).
- England have recorded a batting false shot rate of 36% in men’s T20Is since the beginning of 2024, the best of any Test playing country in that time; in addition, their batting dot ball rate (36%) is the best of any full member team in the format during this period.
- Rovman Powell (91) is one away from surpassing Dwayne Bravo (91) for the outright third most appearances for West Indies in men’s T20I history (Nicholas Pooran – 106, Kieron Pollard – 101); he’s scored more than 35 runs in each of his last three T20I innings against England (38, 54, 43).
- Jos Buttler has scored 22.7% of England’s runs when he’s played in men’s T20Is since the beginning of 2024, the best rate of any player for a Test playing country in that time (min. 11 innings); although, he’s scored fewer than 10 runs in each of his last two T20I innings (7, 2).
- Only Sri Lanka’s Angelo Mathews (77.5% of 200 balls faced) has recorded a better batting good connection rate (min. 110 balls faced) in men’s T20Is since the beginning of 2024 than West Indies’ Shai Hope (72.2% of 216 balls faced) and England’s Will Jacks (71.7% of 159 balls faced) amongst players from Test playing countries.
- Evin Lewis (West Indies) has scored 82% of his 178 runs from boundaries in men’s T20Is since the beginning of 2024, the second-best rate of any player (min. 30 runs scored) from a Test playing country in that time (Travis Head – 83% of 539 runs for Australia).
