- India have won their last three men’s Tests against Australia on the spin; a fourth straight win would equal their longest ever winning streak against the Baggy Greens in the format.
- This will be the first Test meeting between India and Australia at Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore; though, India have won both of their two previous games played at the venue including an innings victory over Bangladesh in their most recent game there (November 2019).
- India have won their last four men’s Tests in a row including the first two of this ongoing series against Australia; the last time they won more in succession was a seven-game stretch from August to November in 2019.
- Australia have lost their last three consecutive men’s Tests played in Asia; the last time they lost more in succession in the region was a nine-game losing streak from February 2013 to August 2016 which included four losses in India.
- Australia batters have a Test batting average of 16.1 in India since the beginning of 2018, the lowest of any team in the men’s edition of the format in that time; though, no team has scored a higher proportion of their runs from boundaries in India in that time than Australia (62%).
- New Zealand (8) are the only team to have made more stumpings in men’s Tests since the beginning of 2022 than India (7), while Australia have made only one in this time span.
- Virat Kohli (3,923) is 77 away from becoming just the fifth player to score 4,000 runs in men’s Tests in India; Kohli has scored more than 75 runs in a single men’s Test in India just once since the start of 2020.
- Steve Smith (Australia) has scored fewer than 50 runs in each of his last five men’s Test innings in India, his longest run of such outings in the country; never has Smith gone without scoring a 50 or more in six straight Test innings in any single country.
- Ravichandran Ashwin (India) has logged 25 five-wicket hauls in Tests in India, the joint-most of any player in the history of the format alongside Anil Kumble; his six career five-wicket hauls against Australia are his joint-most against any team.
- Marnus Labuschagne (Australia) has scored 119 runs at an average of 29.8 in the current Test series against India, the first time since his debut Test series against Pakistan (20.3) that he’s averaged less than 30 runs in a single series.
