- India will seal their place in the ICC World Test Championship Final at Lord's against New Zealand, if they manage to avoid defeat in this match; England are no longer in the running to make the showpiece event.
- India have managed to win each of their last 10 multi-game bilateral men's Test series played on home soil, that run beginning after they suffered a 2-1 series defeat at the hands of England in 2012; they will extend that run to 11, if they avoid losing the 4th Test against England.
- India are yet to lose at Narendra Modi Stadium in men's Test cricket versus England (W2, D1); the hosts have only tasted two defeats at the Ahmedabad ground in the format (W5, D6).
- England have failed to win eight of their last nine men's Test matches played in India (W1, D2, L6); Joe Root's side have suffered back-to-back defeats in the format, having previously enjoyed an eight-match unbeaten streak (W6, D2).
- England have failed to post totals of more than 178 in five of their six innings across this bilateral men's Test series; they only put up 193 over their two innings last time out at this very venue (24-25 February 2021), it was the fourth fewest they have ever managed to record during a Test match when finishing up all out in both knocks.
- India and England meet again at Narendra Modi Stadium after Virat Kohli's men recorded a 10-wicket victory inside two days; the 3rd Test of this series was the fastest concluded men's Test match since 1935, the encounter at the end of last month required only 842 balls to decide a winner.
- Joe Root claimed innings figures of 5/8 at this ground in the 3rd Test, the fewest runs conceded in a Test five-wicket haul for England since 1924 (Arthur Gilligan's 6/7 v South Africa); it was the first time he had taken that many scalps in a first-class innings and it was the first example of an England captain taking a five-fer in men's Test cricket since 1983 (Bob Willis, 5/35 v New Zealand).
- Joe Root (England) has only been out twice when playing a conventional or reverse sweep since the start of the Sri Lanka Test tour, scoring 233 runs in the process; the other England batsmen have recorded 206 runs between them over the same period, being dismissed on 12 occasions when deploying those strokes.
- England's James Anderson has gone 454 deliveries without dismissing India's Virat Kohli in Test cricket; he has been dropped three times off his bowling in that time.
- Ravichandran Ashwin (India) has dismissed Ben Stokes on 11 occasions in Test cricket, almost twice the number of any other bowler; the England all-rounder has only been able to average 18 against him.
