- West Indies have won three of their five men’s T20Is against Ireland (L2), winning their most recent such match in January 2020 and alternating between a loss and a victory in the rest.
- Ireland snapped a three-game losing streak in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup with a win against Scotland in their most recent fixture; out of the six prior editions of the tournament in which the Men in Green have featured, only once have they won more than one game (2 wins in 2014).
- No team has lost more men’s T20Is in 2022 than the West Indies (14) and Ireland (13); indeed, these are the highest number of losses for either team in a single calendar year in the format.
- West Indies beat Zimbabwe by 31 runs in their most recent ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, thereby snapping a three-game losing streak in Australia; never have the Men in Maroon won consecutive men’s T20Is in the country.
- Zimbabwe have registered a batting dot ball rate of 27% during the slog overs (overs 17-20) in men’s T20Is in 2022, the best such rate for any full-member side of the ICC; West Indies are ranked fifth in this category (31%).
- West Indies and Zimbabwe have scored a boundary once every 5.1 balls and 5.6 balls respectively during the powerplay in the ongoing ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022; only Scotland have hit a boundary more often (4.8 balls) during this phase of the competition.
- Only Australia have a better bowling strike rate (9.7) during the slog overs (overs 17-20) in men’s T20Is in 2022 than the West Indies (11.3) among full-member sides of the ICC; Zimbabwe are ranked last in this category (17.7).
- Evin Lewis (1,452) needs 76 runs to become West Indies’ fourth highest scorer in men’s T20Is, in doing so, he would overtake Lendl Simmons (1,527); Lewis has a batting average of 51 against Ireland in the format, his highest against any single opponent he’s played more than once.
- Joshua Little (55) needs four more scalps to become the third highest wicket taker for Ireland in men’s T20Is, in doing so, he would overtake Kevin O’Brien (58 wickets); Little has taken 32 wickets in 2022, the most by any bowler from his country in a single calendar year.
- Alzarri Joseph (West Indies) has clean bowled five batters in this edition of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, the most by any bowler; among pacers, only Mustafizur Rahman has clean bowled more batters in a single edition of the tournament (6 in 2016) than Joseph.
