- Pakistan have won seven of their last nine men's T20Is against New Zealand (L2), including each of their last two meetings.
- New Zealand lost their most recent men's T20I (14 August 2022 v West Indies), snapping a nine-match winning run in the format; the Black Caps will be looking to avoid back-to-back defeats for the first time since November 2021.
- Pakistan have won seven of their last 10 men's T20Is away from home (L3), including a 21-run victory in their most recent such fixture (7 October 2022 v Bangladesh).
- New Zealand have won their last four men's T20Is at home; a fifth consecutive win in this match would equal the Black Caps' longest winning run in the format on home soil (W5 – January 2016 to January 2017).
- New Zealand have a batting good connection rate of 71% in men's T20Is in 2022, the best of any Test playing country.
- New Zealand have a batting strike rate of 159.1 in men's T20Is in 2022, the best of any Test playing country; Pakistan (133.4) are ranked eighth in this category.
- Pakistan have scored 48% of their runs from boundaries in men's T20Is in 2022, the second lowest rate of any Test playing country (Bangladesh – 45%).
- Ish Sodhi (99) is one away from becoming the fifth player to take 100 wickets in men's T20I history and the second for New Zealand (Tim Southee); however, Sodhi's T20I bowling average against Pakistan (38.3) is his highest against any team.
- Shadab Khan (85) is one away from becoming the outright second all time leading wicket taker for Pakistan in men's T20I history (also Umar Gul – 85 and Saeed Ajmal – 85); only Shahid Afridi (97) has taken more.
- Glenn Phillips (964) is 36 away from becoming the sixth player to score 1,000 runs for New Zealand in men's T20I history; he has not been dismissed in three of his last four T20I innings at home (34*, 24*, 58*, 14).
