- India have a chance to register their first multi-game bilateral men’s Test series victory against England at their home since 2007, India currently leads this five game series 2-1.
- England have won each of their last three men’s Test matches at home; the last time they won more consecutive matches at home was between July 2014 and May 2015 (4 matches), three of these matches were against India.
- If India win this men’s Test match against England, it will result in them registering their most victories in a country outside India in the format; they have currently won nine matches each at England, Australia, West Indies and Sri Lanka; however, their lowest win percentage amongst these four countries is in England, winning only nine of their 67 matches there.
- India have played seven men’s Test matches at Edgbaston, Birmingham, failing to register a victory in any of these matches (D1 L6); it is one of the two venues in England where India have played over five matches and failed to register a win (Old Trafford, Manchester – P9 L4 D5).
- India have lost their last two men’s Test matches away from home, the last time they lost more consecutive matches on the road was a run of three matches between February and December 2020.
- Since the beginning of 2020, no team has scored a higher percentage of their runs from boundaries than India in men’s Test cricket, 53% of their runs during this span have come from boundaries; England are ranked seventh in this category at 49%.
- Jonny Bairstow (England) has managed to score a century in each of his last two Test matches, he has done this only once before in his Test career which was also earlier this year; Bairstow has accumulated 774 runs in 2022 (Avg – 64.5), only in 2016 (1470 runs at an avg. of 58.8) has he managed more in a single year since his debut in the format in 2012.
- England's James Anderson (45) needs five more scalps to reach 50 wickets at Edgbaston, Birmingham; if he manages to do so, it will be the third venue in England where he has taken 50 or more wickets (Lord’s – 116, Trent Bridge – 73); he is already the highest wicket taker at Edgbaston.
- Virat Kohli needs 40 more to reach 2,000 runs against England in Test cricket, in doing so he will be the third Indian player to achieve this feat after Sachin Tendulkar (2,535 runs) and Sunil Gavaskar (2,483 runs); Kohli has more runs against England than any other nation, however, his average of 43.6 is the second poorest against any country (West Indies – 43.3).
- Ravindra Jadeja (242) needs eight more scalps to reach 250 wickets in Test cricket, in doing so he will become the eighth player to achieve this feat for India; he has managed eight or more wickets in a Test match four times before in his career.
