- New Zealand have won 10 of their last 12 men’s ODIs against Sri Lanka (L2), including each of their last two; the Black Caps defeated Sri Lanka by 198 runs in their most recent meeting in the format at Eden Park in Auckland (25 March 2023).
- Sri Lanka have lost each of their two men’s ODIs in 2025 after not losing consecutive games through the whole of 2024; in fact, they’ve lost eight of their last nine games in the format outside Sri Lanka.
- New Zealand have lost only one of their last 10 men’s ODIs at Eden Park (W8 T1) – a six-wicket loss against South Africa (4 March 2017); the Black Caps have won each of their three matches in the format at the venue since then.
- Sri Lanka currently trail 0-2 in this multigame bilateral men’s ODI series against New Zealand; they will be looking to avoid a 0-3 defeat in three-match series in the format for the first time since January 2023 v India; their last instance of a 0-3 defeat against the Black Caps in ODIs was in January 2019.
- New Zealand have a batting false shot rate of 24% during the powerplay in men’s ODIs since the beginning of 2024, the best of any Test playing country in that time; in addition, the Black Caps’ batting average during this period (64.8) is the second best of any team (India – 71.3).
- Sri Lanka have recorded a bowling dot ball rate of 51.6% during the death overs (41st-50th) in men’s ODIs since the beginning of 2024, the second best of any Test playing country in that time (Australia – 52%); in addition, their bowling average during this period (16.5) is the third best of any team (Pakistan – 8.8 and Australia – 11.6).
- Rachin Ravindra (944) is 56 away from scoring 1,000 runs for New Zealand in men’s ODIs; if he achieves the milestone in this innings (24*), he’d be the joint-second fastest player to reach it for the Black Caps in the format (also Glenn Turner – 24 innings and Daryl Mitchell – 24 innings) behind only Devon Conway (22 innings).
- Wanindu Hasaranga (95) is five away from reaching 100 wickets for Sri Lanka in men’s ODIs; if he achieves the milestone in this match (61*), he’d be the fastest player to reach it for Sri Lanka, surpassing Ajantha Mendis (63 matches).
- Mark Chapman (New Zealand) has a batting good connection rate of 86% from 88 balls faced in this multigame bilateral men’s ODI series between New Zealand and Sri Lanka, the best of any player from either team to bat more than once in the campaign; in addition, his batting strike rate (103.4) is the second best of any player in this regard (Rachin Ravindra – 125.3).
- New Zealand trio Will O’Rourke (39), Matt Henry (38) and Jacob Duffy (22) have induced a false shot on more of their balls bowled than any other players in this multigame bilateral men’s ODI series between New Zealand and Sri Lanka.
