- Australia have continued their unbeaten record in men's Test series at home against Pakistan (W9, D3 before this series) and will be looking to win an eighth consecutive series against Pakistan at home with a win or draw in this game.
- Australia have lost only one of their last six men's Tests against Pakistan (W4, D1), with two of their last three wins in such fixtures coming by a margin of more than an innings.
- This will be the fifth meeting between Australia and Pakistan in men's Tests at the Adelaide Oval; their first clash in 1972 was won by Australia by an innings and 114 runs, though the three instances since have all ended in draws.
- Australia will be aiming to avoid back-to-back defeats in men's Tests at the Adelaide Oval for the first time since 1979-1980 after a 31-run loss to India in their last game there – a result which snapped a five-game win streak for Australia at the venue.
- Pakistan have a win rate of just 11% in men's Tests in Australia, their lowest win rate in any nation where they've played a Test.
- Five of the 20 opening partnerships between David Warner and Joe Burns have lasted for 100+ runs, the highest ratio of any pair of opening Australian batsmen to have opened at least five times in Australia's history.
- Australian duo Steven Smith and Marnus Labuschagne have each made six scores of 50+ in men's Tests in 2019; India's Ajinkya Rahane (7) is the only player to have made more in that time.
- Yasir Shah (Pakistan) took 4/205 in the first Test of this series – his best ever Test figures against Australia – continuing his record of having taken at least one wicket in every one of his six Test innings in Australia.
- Travis Head (Australia) has scored one century and five half-centuries in his last 10 first class innings at the Adelaide Oval, including a first-innings century in his last game at the venue.
- Asad Shafiq (Pakistan) has scored two centuries in his last three day-night Test innings, including 137 runs against Australia in Brisbane in December 2016.
