- The West indies have won seven of their last eight men’s T20Is against Australia, including a 15-run win when they last met in July 2021; they’ve also won both of their last two meetings with Australia at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup.
- Australia have won five of their last seven games at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup after having won only one their seven previous games at the tournament.
- The West Indies have lost four of their last five men’s T20Is beating only Bangladesh (October 29, 2021) in that span, as many as they had lost in their 11 previous games in the format.
- The West Indies have lost three of their four games thus far at the 2021 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup; they have never previously logged more than three defeats in a single iteration of the tournament.
- Australia have a catch rate of just 71% against the West Indies in men’s T20Is since the beginning of 2018, their lowest against any opponent in that time; they have dropped eight of their 28 catches attempts against them in that period.
- The West Indies have hit a boundary once every 10 balls or more in two of their last four men’s T20Is; the last time they had hit a boundary so infrequently in a men’s T20I game prior to that run was against Afghanistan on November 17, 2019 (12.1).
- Adam Zampa (Australia) has had a bowling dot ball rate of 50% or higher in four of his last seven T20I innings after doing so just once in his 17 innings prior; Zampa is currently enjoying a 10-game wicket-taking run across which he has taken 19 wickets.
- Nicholas Pooran (West Indies) has finished two of his last four T20I innings with a dot ball rate below 30% after having not done so even once in his six T20I innings prior.
- Steve Smith is set to play his 50th T20I, becoming the seventh player to reach a half century of appearances for Australia in the men’s edition of the format; he will become just the third Australian to play 50 Tests, 50 ODIs, and 50 T20Is (David Warner, Shane Watson).
- Chris Gayle (West Indies) has scored 274 runs against Australia at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, the most of any player in the history of the tournament; he has logged four half centuries in five innings against them at the tournament at an average of 68.5.
