- India have won two of their last four ODIs against Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground, including a six-wicket win in their most recent clash at the venue; the visitors had never previously won an ODI at the venue from 11 attempts beforehand (L11).
- Australia have won just three of their last 21 completed ODIs overall and haven't won an ODI bilateral series since a 4-1 triumph over Pakistan at home in January 2017.
- Australia have won nine of their last 11 ODIs played at the Sydney Cricket Ground; however, they will be out to avoid back-to-back losses at the venue for the first time since 2008/09 after a 16-run defeat to England in their last ODI at the venue.
- India have lost just one of their last 11 ODIs heading into this fixture (W8, T2), including wins by 224 runs and nine wickets respectively in their last two games against the Windies.
- India have lost just three of their last 21 ODIs played away from home (W17, T1) and are undefeated in their last six such fixtures (W5, T1).
- Aaron Finch (Australia) finished with a batting average of 83.3 in his most recent ODI series against India (September/October 2017), the highest of any player in the series, making a century and a half-century over his three knocks.
- India boast a 75% win rate in completed ODIs under Virat Kohli's captaincy, their best figure under any player who has led them out on at least 10 occasions.
- Glenn Maxwell (Australia) boasts a batting strike rate of 168.8 at the Sydney Cricket Ground, his best at any venue where he has played more than two ODIs; indeed, it was also the location of his only previous ODI century (102 v Sri Lanka in March 2015).
- Indian Bhuvneshwar Kumar's next wicket will be his 100th in One-Day Internationals; however, his bowling average of 64.4 against Australia is significantly greater than he has recorded against any other opponent.
