- India are undefeated in their last five men’s T20I bilateral series against South Africa (W2 D3); South Africa’s winning percentage of 42% against India (11/26) is their second worst against any team (won 32% against Australia – 8/25).
- South Africa have lost 16 of their last 20 men’s T20Is in South Africa, including a 106-run loss to India in their most recent home match (14 December 2023) thanks largely to a century by India’s Suryakumar Yadav (100); they had only lost once in nine matches prior to that span (W7 T1).
- India have only lost one of their last 23 men’s T20Is (W20 T2); in fact, their 19 wins since the start of 2024 is their second most in a calendar year (won 28 in 2022).
- South Africa have lost their last four men’s T20Is at Kingsmead, Durban including their last three to Australia in 2023, they had won their three previous matches in the format at the venue; India are undefeated in their four matches at Kingsmead (W3 T1), which all took place during the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2007.
- Indian batters have a collective average of 31.5 in men’s T20Is since the start of 2024, the best rate amongst full member sides; South Africa batters have an average of 23 in that span.
- South Africa pace bowlers induce a play-and-miss rate of 23.4% on all deliveries in the powerplay period in men’s T20Is since the start of 2024, the best rate amongst full member sides; India ranks seventh in the category with a rate of 19.3%.
- Ravi Bishnoi (India) has induced a false rate of 48.2% from opposition batters in men’s T20Is since the start of 2024, the best rate of any spinner amongst full member sides (min. 10 overs bowled).
- Opposition batters have played at and missed 25.1% of all balls bowled by Marco Jansen (South Africa) in men’s T20Is in 2024, the second highest such rate of any bowler from a full-member side to have bowled at least 100 deliveries this year (Trent Boult – 31.1%).
- Arshdeep Singh (87) and Hardik Pandya (87) need three more wickets each to move into third place for most men’s T20I wickets for India (Yuzvendra Chahal - 96, Bhuvneshwar Kumar - 90, Jasprit Bumrah – 89); Arshdeep Singh has taken 28 wickets in the format since the start of 2024, 11 more than any other Indian player.
- Aiden Markram (9) needs one more 50+ score to become the sixth player to score 10 fifties for South Africa in men’s T20Is; though, he has failed to reach that landmark in his last 24 innings in the format.
