- Pakistan have never lost a multi-game bilateral men's T20I series versus Zimbabwe, winning all four of the previous such series in the format, doing so by a margin of 2-0 on all four of those occasions.
- Pakistan currently hold a 100% winning record against Zimbabwe in men's T20Is: beating them 12 times out of a possible 12, they chased down Zimbabwe with seven balls remaining in the series opener.
- Pakistan are hosting their four men's T20I on home soil in 2020, they saw off Bangladesh in both of their outings before seeing off Zimbabwe at this very venue last time out; they suffered three defeats on the spin in Pakistan immediately before this current run, however.
- Pakistan put together a nine-series winning streak in multi-game bilateral men's T20Is between September 2016 and November 2018; they only mustered one multi-game bilateral men's T20I series victory in five attempts since then (D1 L3).
- Zimbabwe have tasted defeat in 10 of their last 14 men's T20Is to have taken place in Asia (W4); three of those four victories came against non-Test playing nations, however (v Afghanistan, 20 September 2019).
- Babar Azam (Pakistan) has managed to post scores of 77*, 125 and 82 in his last three knocks in white-ball cricket versus Zimbabwe; he has the highest batting average of any man to log 20+ innings in T20I cricket (50.9).
- Babar Azam (Pakistan) is looking to become the all-time leading century-maker at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium; he's registered three tons across all formats at the venue (level with Ijaz Ahmed and Saeed Anwar).
- Mohammad Hafeez (Pakistan) has claimed 13 wickets in men's T20Is played out between his side and Zimbabwe, over twice the number of any other bowler (Chamu Chibhabha & Chris Mpofu - both six); the Pakistan all-rounder's best ever T20 figures came against Zimbabwe in September 2011 (4/10), he was only utilised for one over in the series opener however.
- Muhammad Hasnain (Pakistan) logged a match-high 12 dot balls in the series opener; the joint-most he's recorded in a T20I appearance (7th game).
- 20-year-old Wesley Madhevere (Zimbabwe) top-scored for his side in the series opener against Pakistan (70*); only three players (Kanishka Chaugai, Stefan Swanepoel & Greg Thompson) have ever recorded more appearances in the ICC Under 19 Cricket World Cup (18).
