- Zimbabwe are unbeaten in each of their last two men’s Tests against the West Indies (D2), the Chevrons, however, have never gone unbeaten in three or more such games against the Men in Maroon in the format.
- Zimbabwe will be aiming to record their first win in men’s Tests after a run of five winless matches (D1 L4), the last time the Chevrons went on a longer winless streak was of a 12-game run between August 2014 and December 2017 (D1 L11).
- West Indies will be aiming to register their first multi-game bilateral series win on the road in men’s Tests after going down in each of their previous two such series; the last time West Indies endured a longer losing series streak was for a five-series run between December 2017 and December 2020.
- Zimbabwe are on the lookout of their first men’s Test win at Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo since registering a win against Bangladesh in April 2001; since then, the Chevrons have lost 16 Tests at the venue consecutively (D4 L12).
- Since the start of 2021, Zimbabwe have effected just one run-out in men’s Tests; the least of all teams to have played format (min. 3 games); West Indies are fourth from top in this list having dismissed 10 times via run-outs.
- West Indies have averaged a boundary once every 19 balls while batting in men’s Test cricket since the beginning of 2021, the least of all teams during the period.
- West Indies (79%) and Zimbabwe (78%) have the highest dot ball percentage of all teams while batting since the beginning of the 2021 in men’s Test cricket.
- In the last match, the West Indian duo of Kraigg Brathwaite and Tagenarine Chanderpaul became the first opening pair to bat 100 overs in a Test innings during the 21st century (114.1 overs); the last and time an opening pair achieved such a feat was Marvan Atapattu and Sanath Jayasuriya in June 2000 (114.2).
- Jason Holder (145 wickets and 2623 runs) is five scalps away to become the second West Indies all-rounder to bag 150 wickets in men’s Tests and score more than 2000+ runs in the format; only Gary Sobers is the other player who has achieved the feat for the Men in Maroon in the format (235 wickets and 8032 runs).
- Kemar Roach (254 wickets) is six dismissals away from surpassing Joel Garner (259) to become the fifth leading wicket-taker for West Indies in men’s Tests; he has bagged a six-fer only once in the format (vs Bangladesh, July 2009).
