  • This will be the first meeting between India and Nepal in a men’s ODI; the last time India lost their first match against an opponent in the format was a 47-run loss against Sri Lanka (16 June 1979).
  • Nepal have won just one of their last five men’s ODIs (L4), with their sole win during this phase coming against the United Arab Emirates (2 July 2023) by a three-wicket margin.
  • India have lost just one of their last 11 completed men’s ODIs played in Sri Lanka (W10), with the sole loss in this span coming in their most recent such meeting by a three-wicket margin (vs Sri Lanka) on 23 July 2021.
  • Nepal have lost two of their last 10 men’s ODIs played in Asia (W8), a 238-run loss against Pakistan in their most recent such match (30 August 2023) and a 68-run loss against the United Arab Emirates (2 March 2023) in the first game of this 10-game stretch.
  • India have scored 70% of their runs via boundaries during the Powerplay phase in men’s ODIs played in 2023, the highest of all full-member sides to have played more than three matches this term; in fact, they have logged a boundary run share of less than 60% in the same phase in only three of their 13 matches this year.
