- India and Afghanistan are set to meet at the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup for the first time; this will be the third time they have faced off in ODI cricket, India winning the first encounter (2014) whilst the second meeting ended in a tie (2018).
- India come into this match having registered victories in 14 of their last 15 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup matches; a 95-run loss to Australia in the 2015 tournament being the only blip in that run.
- Despite losing the game last time out versus England, Afghanistan's 247-8 at Old Trafford was the highest innings total they have ever produced at the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup; surpassing the 232 they made against Sri Lanka in 2015.
- India have played four times before at the Hampshire bowl in men's ODI cricket, their record stands at two wins and two defeats at the Southampton venue; Afghanistan have never featured there before in any format.
- 10 different players have hit a maximum for Afghanistan at ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2019, no other team have as many players to hit a six so far.
- Asghar Afghan and Hashmatullah Shahidi's partnership of 94 at Old Trafford in Afghanistan's most recent fixture (v England) was the highest ever partnership for Afghanistan at the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup.
- Rohit Sharma (India) has registered scores of 140, 57 and 122* in his three knocks at ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2019; overall, he has averaged 72 across his 11 knocks in ICC Men's Cricket World Cup matches, the best rate of any India player to record more than two innings in the competition's history.
- Just nine of 168 legal balls bowled by India's Kuldeep Yadav at this tournament have been struck for a boundary (5.4%); the lowest rate of any bowler to record 150 deliveries at ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2019.
- Virat Kohli (764) requires 97 to move into third spot on the list for most ICC Men's Cricket World Cup runs for India, he’d leapfrog Mohammad Azharuddin (826), Virender Sehwag (843) and Rahul Dravid (860); he's scored more ODI runs than any other batsman in the world since the start of 2016 (4,189), averaging 83.8 across those 64 knocks in that time.
- Mohammad Shahzad's 124 off 116 helped Afghanistan register a tie when they last took on India in an ODI, he has been forced to withdraw from ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2019 due to injury; KL Rahul top-scored for India that day with 60 (September 25th 2018).
