- New Zealand have won all their three previous men’s T20Is against Ireland; it’s the Black Caps’ second most matches against a single team in the format without losing (W6 v Zimbabwe).
- Ireland have lost their last five men’s T20Is in succession; the last and only time they went on a longer losing run in the format was a six-match span from January 2017 to June 2018.
- New Zealand have won each of their last two men’s T20Is, after losing four consecutive matches in the format prior; the Black Caps have batted first on the day in five of the six games across that span.
- Ireland have won only one of their last nine men’s T20Is at Civil Service Cricket Club (L8), an eight-wicket victory against Nepal (13 July 2015).
- Ireland have scored 69% of their runs from boundaries during the powerplay in men’s T20Is since the beginning of 2020, the second-best rate of any Test playing country in that time (West Indies – 71%).
- New Zealand have a bowling average of 18.9 using spin bowling in men’s T20Is since the beginning of 2020, the second best of any Test playing country in that time (Afghanistan – 18).
- Andy Balbirnie (W12) is one away from recording the outright second most wins as captain of Ireland in men’s T20Is (also Gary Wilson – W12); only William Porterfield (W26) has recorded more victories as captain in the format.
- Martin Guptill (New Zealand) has hit 52 sixes in men’s T20Is since the beginning of 2020, the second most by any player in that time (Nicholas Pooran – 58 for West Indies).
- Finn Allen (New Zealand) has scored 79% of his runs from boundaries in men’s T20Is since the beginning of 2020, the second-best rate of any player from a Test playing country (min. 30 runs scored) during this period (Andre Russell – 83% for West Indies).
- Jacob Duffy (New Zealand) has induced a batting false shot percentage of 45% when bowling in men’s T20Is since the beginning of 2020, the third best rate of any player from a Test playing country (min. 15 overs bowled) in that time (Fazalhaq Farooqi – 51% and Andrew Tye – 48%).
