- England have lost just two of their 18 men's Test matches at Lord's against India, the last time this happened was in 2014 (W12, D4, also lost in 1986); the home side however, have drawn their last two Test matches at this venue (v New Zealand, v Australia).

- Ravichandran Ashwin (413) is five away from becoming the third highest wicket taker for India in men's Test cricket (Harbhajan Singh - 417); only Anil Kumble (619) and Kapil Dev (434) have more than that pair.
