- England have won three of their five bilateral multi-game men’s T20I series against New Zealand (D1 L1), with the most recent such series ending in a 2-2 draw; New Zealand’s sole win came in June 2013.
- New Zealand have won each of their last two men’s T20Is against England, after losing three on the bounce prior to that; if the Black Caps win this game, it will be their outright longest winning streak against the Three Lions in the format.
- England have won six of their last seven completed men’s T20Is, including each of the last three on the bounce; the last time they went on a longer winning streak in the format was a stretch of four games between September and November in 2024.
- New Zealand have lost seven of their last eight men’s T20Is when chasing a target (L1), including each of the last five on the bounce – their longest such winning streak in the format; however, they have lost each of their last two games in the format when batting first.
- New Zealand have a catch success rate of 82.2% in men’s T20Is since the start of 2025, the second-best rate by any full-member side behind India (83.9%); the Black Caps have caught 74 of the 90 chances presented to them in the format this year.
- England have scored a boundary once in every 4.6 deliveries in men’s T20Is since the start of 2025, the second best rate among full-member sides behind Australia (4.3); in fact, their collective batting strike rate of 162 during the same period is also bettered only by Australia (167.8).
- Tim Seifert (497 runs in 2025) is three away from becoming the sixth New Zealand batter to score 500+ runs in men’s T20Is in a single calendar year; in fact, his batting average of 49.7 this year is the second best by any Black Caps batter in a single calendar year (min. 7 innings batted) behind himself (50.3 in 2020).
- Jos Buttler (3,836 runs) is 164 away from becoming the fourth batter to score 4,000+ runs in men’s T20Is alongside Rohit Sharma (4,231), Babar Azam (4,223) and Virat Kohli (4,188); in fact, the most he has scored in a bilateral T20I series spanning three games is 165 (vs West Indies in June 2025).
- Daryl Mitchell (New Zealand) has logged a batting dot ball rate of 25% in men’s T20Is since the start of 2025, the best such rate among full-member side batters to have faced at least 150 deliveries during this period; however, he has scored 30+ runs in only two of his 11 innings in the format this year.
- Adil Rashid (141 wickets) is nine away from becoming the fifth bowler to pick up 150+ wickets in men’s T20Is behind Rashid Khan (179), Tim Southee (164), Mustafizur Rahman (152) and Ish Sodhi (150); however, the most wickets he has picked up in a bilateral T20I series spanning three games is six (vs Australia in September 2020).
