- India have won each of their last three men’s T20I games against England, including wins in each of the first two matches this series; another win would see them equal their longest winning streak against England in the format (4 matches – March 2021 to July 2022).
- India are unbeaten in each of their last ten men’s T20I matches at home (W9 T1), their last such loss a 5-wicket defeat to Australia in Guwahati on 28 November 2023; a win here will see them equal their longest such streak at home (11 wins between March 2021 and February 2022).
- After defeats in their last two matches, a defeat on Tuesday will see England lose a multi-game bilateral men’s T20I series for the first time since December 2023 (3-2 defeat away to the West Indies).
- India have won four of the five men’s T20Is that they have played at the Niranjan Shah Stadium in Rajkot; their only defeat at the venue in the format was a 40-run loss to New Zealand on 4 November 2017.
- Only 35.5% of the balls faced by English batters since 2024 in men’s T20I cricket have been dot balls, the best such rate by any full-member team; India are next on the list (36.9%).
- India have recorded a bowling strike-rate of 14.8 since the beginning of 2024 in men’s T20I cricket, only Australia have recorded a better such rate than the Men in Blue (14.6%) among full member sides; England meanwhile have managed a bowling strike-rate of 16.8 in this period.
- India have dismissed 16 batters via run outs since the beginning of 2024 in men’s T20I cricket – including one in each of the first two games of this ongoing series – the most by any fielding team; England have only logged nine such dismissals.
- Washington Sundar (48) is two wickets away from becoming the 11th Indian cricketer to pick up 50 wickets in men’s T20Is; he has picked up at least one wicket in each of his last 11 matches in the format, taking at least two wickets in four of those 11 games.
- Phil Salt (England) has logged a boundary once every four deliveries during the Powerplay overs in men’s T20I cricket since the beginning of 2024, only Travis Head (2.8) and Johnson Charles (3.5) have a better rate than the English batter among full-member sides (min. 150 balls faced in the Powerplay).
- Since the beginning of 2024 in men’s T20Is, Arshdeep Singh (India) has picked up eight wickets in the first over of an innings, the joint-most by any bowler from a full-member side alongside Shaheen Afridi; in fact, he has picked up 39 wickets since 2024 in the format, only Wanindu Hasaranga has bagged more wickets during the same period (40) among bowlers from full-member sides.
