- This is the fifth multi-game bilateral men's T20I series between South Africa and England, the record currently stands at one win apiece (D2); the Proteas are unbeaten in their two such series on home soil versus England however (W1 D1).
- Three of the last four men's T20I games played out between South Africa and England have been won by Eoin Morgan's men (L1); this includes a two-wicket victory by England during ICC World Twenty20 2016.
- South Africa have beaten England in four of their five men's T20I matches played on home soil (L1); this will be the first time these sides will have faced off at Buffalo Park.
- South Africa head into this encounter with England having only lost only once in their last eight men's T20I games played in South Africa (W6 T1 - tied match saw the Proteas win the Super Over); this is set to be their third such match at Buffalo Park, they have one victory to their name there along with one defeat.
- England have only suffered two defeats in their last 10 men's T20I outings (W7 T1 - tied match saw England win the Super Over); the ICC World Twenty20 2016 finalists have chased in six of their last seven such fixtures.
- England's Dawid Malan has claimed a half-century in six of his nine men's T20I knocks, averaging 57 in the process; currently the best rate ever recorded by a batsman to log as many innings as he has for a Test-playing nation.
- Dawid Malan comes into this game having scored the most runs ever by an England batsman in a bilateral men's T20I series (208 v New Zealand, November 2019); he ended that series by becoming only the second man (Alex Hales, 2014) to register a T20I century for England (103* in Napier).
- JJ Smuts (South Africa) has always played as an opening batsman so far in his T20I career, his highest ever score in the format came against England in June 2017 (45).
- Only one bowler (Daniel Sam, 30) took more wickets in the recently concluded Big Bash League campaign than England's Tom Curran (22); he was more expensive than anyone else at the death (overs 17-20) of those to register 40+ deliveries in that period of the innings however (economy rate of 11.8).
- Dwaine Pretorius (South Africa) was dismissed three times by England's Ben Stokes across the four innings they faced each other during the recent Test series, scoring just seven runs in response; no batsman has been out to a specific bowler over the entirety of this tour more often.
