- England have lost only one of their last seven multigame bilateral men's ODI series against South Africa (W3, D3), a 3-2 defeat in February 2016; they are undefeated in their three such series since then (W1, D2).
- South Africa have won only one of their last seven multigame bilateral men's ODI series (D2, L4), a 3-0 victory against India in January 2022; indeed, the Proteas will be looking to avoid back-to-back defeats in such series at home for the first time in the history of the format, following their 2-1 loss to Bangladesh last time out (March 2022).
- England are winless in their last three multigame bilateral men's ODI series (D1, L2), after having won three consecutive such series prior in the format.
- South Africa have lost only one of their last 12 men's ODIs at Mangaung Oval in Bloemfontein (W10, T1), a 39-run loss to England (3 February 2016).
- South Africa have a batting good connection percentage of 74% in men's ODIs since the beginning of 2022, the second-best rate of any Test playing country in that time (Pakistan – 78%).
- England have a catch success rate of 88% in men's ODIs since the beginning of 2022 (50/57), the best rate of any team and 11 percentage points higher than South Africa (77%).
- England have a collective batting strike rate of 104.1 in men's ODIs since the beginning of 2022, the best of any Test playing country and one of only two to have logged a rate of 100+ during this period (India – 100).
- Janneman Malan (958) is 42 away from scoring 1,000 runs for South Africa in men's ODIs; if he reaches the milestone in this innings (23*) he'd be the second fastest player to achieve it for the Proteas (Quinton de Kock – 21 innings and Rassie van der Dussen – 21 innings).
- Jason Roy (3,993) is seven away from scoring 4,000 runs for England in men's ODIs; if he reaches the milestone in this innings (105*) he'd be the second fastest player to achieve it for England (Joe Root – 91 innings).
- Wayne Parnell (97) is three away from becoming the 13th player to take 100 wickets for South Africa in men's ODIs; he has taken 3+ wickets in three ODI innings against England, his joint-most against any team (also 3 v Sri Lanka).
