- Australia have won 28 of their 30 men’s ODIs against Zimbabwe (L2), including all 11 of their meetings against them at home; it’s the most matches they have played against any country on home soil in the format without losing.
- Australia have won their last two men’s ODIs after winning only one of their six games prior (L5); the last time they enjoyed a longer winning run in the format was a three-match span from September to November in 2020.
- Zimbabwe have lost 10 of their 13 men’s ODIs in 2022 (W3) including their last five in succession; only the West Indies (L16) and Netherlands (L15) have recorded more defeats in the format this calendar year.
- Australia have won 10 of their last 12 men’s ODIs in Queensland (L2); those two defeats were a four-wicket loss to England (19 January 2018) and a four-wicket loss to Sri Lanka (18 January 2013).
- Zimbabwe have a batting good connection percentage of 66% in men’s ODIs in 2022, the lowest rate of any Test playing country this year and six percentage points fewer than Australia (72%).
- Australia have induced a batting false shot percentage of 23% in men’s ODIs in 2022 using spin bowling, the second-best rate of any Test playing country in that time (Sri Lanka – 26%).
- Mitchell Starc (196) is four away from becoming the sixth player to take 200 wickets for Australia in men’s ODIs; if he reaches the milestone in this match (101*) he’d be the fastest player in the history of the format to achieve it, surpassing Pakistan’s Saqlain Mushtaq (104 matches).
- Sikandar Raza (Zimbabwe) has scored 620 runs in men’s ODIs in 2022, the fourth most by any player from a Test playing country this year (Shai Hope – 709, Shamarh Brooks – 694 and Babar Azam – 679).
- Glenn Maxwell (Australia) has a batting strike rate of 156.1 in men’s ODIs in 2022, the second best of any player (min. 3 innings) in the format this year (Odean Smith – 192 for West Indies).
- Marcus Stoinis (Australia) has a batting good connection percentage of 100% from 14 balls faced during the powerplay in men’s ODIs since the beginning of 2021; it’s the most deliveries any player from a Test playing country has faced during this period with a 100% rate.
