- Australia have lost only one of their last five men's Tests against India (W3 D1) despite losing the coin toss four times in that span and will be looking to win back-to-back matches against India for the first time since December 2014 after winning by 10 wickets in the second match of this series.
- Australia lost by three wickets in their last men's Test against India at the Brisbane Cricket Ground (January 2021) after being undefeated against them at the venue prior to that result (W5 D1); indeed, India are one of only four teams against whom Australia has lost at the venue (New Zealand, West Indies, India, England).
- Australia have lost two of their last four men's Tests at the Brisbane Cricket Ground (W2), including an eight-run loss to the West Indies in their last game at the venue (January 2024); they were undefeated in their previous 31 games there (W24 D7) and haven't lost back-to-back matches there since November 1986.
- India have lost six of their last 12 men's Tests away from home (W5 D1), including a 10-wicket loss in the second match of this series, and will be out to avoid back-to-back defeats in away Tests for the first time since July 2022.
- India have won eight of their 13 men's Tests in 2024 (L5) and need one more win to equal their most wins in a calendar year (W9 in 2016); however, they've also lost five Tests this year but have only lost more than five matches in a year on four occasions (L7 in 1959, 1983, 2018, L6 in 2014).
- India have scored 53.1% of their runs in men's Tests in 2024 via boundaries, the highest rate of any team and one of just two to have scored at least half of their runs past the rope (Afghanistan – 50.1%); however, they have also conceded 55.6% of their runs through boundaries which is the highest rate of any team.
- Nathan Lyon (Australia) has dismissed Rohit Sharma nine times in Tests, two more times than any other player in the format, while teammate Pat Cummins (5 times) has dismissed Rohit Sharma the equal third most times of any bowler.
- Virat Kohli (1,475) is just 25 runs away from becoming the second India batter to score 1,500 runs in men's Tests in Australia (Sachin Tendulkar – 1,809), while only Jack Hobbs (9) has scored more Test centuries in Australia than Kohli (7) among visiting batters.
- Mitchell Starc (Australia) has taken 47 wickets in men's Tests at the Brisbane Cricket Ground, the fourth-most of any bowler, and needs just three more to become the second pace bowler (and 4th overall) to reach 50 wickets at the venue; he's taken at least one wicket in nine of his last 10 innings there.
- Jasprit Bumrah (India) has dismissed seven batters within the first 20 balls of their innings in this men’s Test series between Australia and India, more than any other bowler; indeed, he's dismissed at least one batter within 20 balls of their innings in each of his last four matches against Australia (11 in total).
