- Australia and Ireland have faced each other in just one men’s T20I prior, during the 2012 World Cup, with the Baggy Greens winning by seven wickets on the occasion.
- Australia have recorded 10 victories in men’s T20Is in 2022 (also in 2010, 2018 and 2021), a win against Ireland will make this calendar year as Australia’s most successful one in the format.
- Ireland have won three of their last four men’s T20Is (L1); the Men in Green’s three wins at the 2022 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup is their highest such tally in any edition of the competition, overtaking their two wins in 2014.
- Australia have won five of their six men’s T20Is at The Gabba in Brisbane, including each of the last three such games at the venue; their only loss here in the format came against the West Indies in February 2013.
- Australia have struck a boundary once every five balls during the middle overs (overs 7-16) of the ongoing 2022 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, the best such rate for any team; Ireland are ranked fifth in this category hitting a boundary every 8.6 balls during these overs in the competition.
- Ireland have registered a catch success rate of 56% during the Super 12 phase of the 2022 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, the worst such rate among all teams; they have dropped four of the nine chances presented to them during this phase of the tournament.
- Australia have registered a bowling strike rate of 26.4 during the powerplay overs in men’s T20Is in 2022, the poorest such rate among all full-member sides of the ICC this year.
- Marcus Stoinis (49) is one away from becoming the ninth player to reach 50 games played for Australia in men’s T20Is; among the eight other players to reach this milestone, only Glenn Maxwell (150.6) has a better career batting strike rate than Stoinis (148.9).
- Only India’s Bhuvneshwar Kumar (17) has dismissed an opening batter more often than Ireland’s Joshua Little (11) in men’s T20Is in 2022; Little (57) is two career wickets away from overtaking Kevin O’Brien (58) to become Ireland’s third-highest wicket taker in men’s T20Is.
- Australia’s Mitchell Starc has registered a bowling dot ball rate of 65.3% during the powerplay overs in men’s T20Is in 2022, the joint-best rate by any bowler this year among full-member sides of the ICC (min. 50 balls bowled).
