- India have won four of their last five men’s T20Is against South Africa after losing three in a row against them in the format prior to that run; indeed, they will remain unbeaten in their last six bilateral men’s T20I series against South Africa regardless of the outcome of this fixture thanks to a 2-1 lead.
- This will be the fifth meeting between South Africa and India at The Wanderers Stadium in men’s T20Is with India having won three of the previous four encounters including a 106-run win when they last clashed at the venue (December 2023).
- South Africa will be aiming to avoid losing the seventh of their last eight bilateral men’s T20Is series on home soil by winning the final game of this series (D1); indeed, it has been more than five years since they won such a series (March 2019 vs Sri Lanka).
- South Africa have lost four of their last five men’s T20Is at The Wanderers Stadium including their last two in a row; the last and only previous time they lost more than two consecutive games at the venue was a three-game stretch from March 2016 to February 2018.
- India have won 23 of their 25 men’s T20Is in 2024, including Super Over results, which is the third-most wins of any team in a calendar year behind only Uganda’s 29 wins in 2023 and India’s 28 wins in 2022.
- Only Bangladesh (72%) and Australia (72%) have had a lower proportion of their dismissed batters face 20 balls or fewer in their innings in men’s T20Is in 2024 than South Africa (74%) and India (75%), among full member teams.
- Gerald Coetzee (South Africa) has a batting dot ball rate of just 26.1% from his 23 balls faced during this men’s T20I series between South Africa and India, the lowest of any batter to feature in more than one innings in the series.
- Axar Patel (India) has made a good connection on 72.4% of his 29 balls faced in this ongoing men’s T20I series between South Africa and India, the highest of any player in the series; though, he’s also scored 42.9% of his runs via singles which is the highest rate of any player (min. 20 balls faced).
- Heinrich Klaasen (980) is 20 runs away from reaching 1,000 scored for South Africa in T20Is, a feat reached by only nine players previously for the team in the men’s edition of the format; though, he’s been dismissed for just 6 and 5 runs in his last two innings at The Wanderers Stadium.
- Arshdeep Singh (India) has taken 33 T20I wickets in 2024 – the joint-third most of any player – which is also the joint second most of any player for India in a single calendar year of the men’s format and the second time that he has taken 33 wickets in a single year (2022); only Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s 37 wickets in 2022 is higher for India.
