- A victory or a draw in this game for England will mean they go nine home Test series unbeaten; their last Test series defeat on home soil came in 2014 versus Sri Lanka.
- India’s victory at Trent Bridge means the series stands at 2-1 to England; only once before has a side come from 2-0 down to win a Test series (Australia in 1936/37 Ashes).
- India’s success in Nottingham ended a run of five straight Test defeats to England in England, they haven’t managed to win back-to-back Tests there since 1986 though; the last time England slumped to successive home losses was over 10 years ago.
- Just one of England’s last 30 Test matches to have been played on home soil has ended in a draw (W19, L10); Joe Root’s men have claimed victory in seven of their last 10 in England (L3).
- This will be only the third Test match to ever take place at the Ageas Bowl in Southampton; England are yet to lose there (W1 D1), beating India in the most recent encounter at this venue (by 266 runs in 2014).
- Virat Kohli comes into this game having scored more than twice the amount of runs anybody else has in this series; posting his 440 runs at an average of 73, he could only record 134 across his 10 knocks in England prior to this current series.
- James Anderson is only three dismissals away from becoming the all-time leading wicket-taker against India (currently Muralitharan, 105) and requires seven more scalps to go above Glenn McGrath (563) as the seamer to take the most Test wickets ever.
- James Vince has scored 664 runs across his last five County Championship appearances for Hampshire, averaging 83 and claiming three centuries in that time; he has only been able to average 19.3 over his previous 11 Test innings in England however.
- Ishant Sharma has dismissed Alastair Cook three times in this series for the cost of just 31 runs, all of those wickets coming in his last three innings; Sharma’s only two more away from becoming the bowler to dismiss Cook most often in Test cricket (currently Morne Morkel, 12).
- Six of the last eight Test dismissals recorded by Keaton Jennings have been caught behind by the wicketkeeper or in the slip cordon; four of which have been forced from ‘back of a length’ deliveries.
