- This will be the first men’s Test between Australia and England at Blundstone Arena; Australia have won 69% of their men’s Tests at the Hobart venue (9/13) – their best win rate at any ground in Australia where they have played more than twice in the format.
- England are winless in their last seven men’s Tests away from home (D1, L6); the last time they went longer without a win on the road in the format was a 13-match span from October 2016 to March 2018 (D3, L10).
- Australia (149) is one away from recording their 150th victory in men’s Tests against England, by far their most against any side in the format and 91 more than their next best (W58 v West Indies); indeed, it is the most wins of any team against another in the history of the format.

- Joe Root (23) is one away from recording the outright second most hundreds for England in men’s Tests (Kevin Pietersen – 23); he has scored 847 runs in the format in Australia – the second most by any non-Australian player without having scored a century in the country (Tom Hayward – 962 for England).
- Scott Boland (Australia) has a bowling average of 8.6 in Test cricket, the best by any Australian player in the history of the men’s format (min. 3 innings).
- Stuart Broad (125) is four away from becoming England’s second all-time leading wicket taker against Australia in men’s Tests (Bob Willis – 128); only Sir Ian Botham (148) has taken more for England in the men’s Ashes history.
- Cameron Green (Australia) has a batting good connection percentage of 77% in the 2021/22 men’s Ashes series, the best rate of any player and eight percentage points more than England’s best Joe Root (69%).
