- Afghanistan will be aiming for back-to-back wins in men’s ODIs against Sri Lanka for the first time in the history of the format, following their 60-run victory in their most recent meeting (25 November 2022).
- Sri Lanka have lost their last two men’s ODIs; the last time they recorded a longer losing run in the format was a four-match span from June to July in 2021.
- Afghanistan have won eight of their 10 men’s ODIs in 2022 (L2); a ninth win in this match would be their outright second most wins in the format in a calendar year (also W8 – 2015, 2017).
- Sri Lanka will be looking to avoid back-to-back defeats in men’s ODIs at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium for the first time since October 2018, following their 60-run loss to Afghanistan in their most recent such fixture (25 November 2022).
- Afghanistan have made 10 run outs when fielding in men’s ODIs in 2022 – more than any other Test playing country this year and four more than Sri Lanka (6).
- Sri Lanka have a batting average of 43.3 facing spin bowling in men’s ODIs in 2022, the second best of any Test playing country this year (India – 51.4).
- Mohammad Nabi (2,956) is 44 away from becoming the second player to score 3,000 runs for Afghanistan in men’s ODIs (Rahmat Shah); Sri Lanka (116.2) is one of three countries where he has an ODI batting strike rate of 100+ (123 in Malaysia, 116.7 in Canada).
- Rahmat Shah (5) is one away from equaling Mohammad Shahzad (6) for the most centuries for Afghanistan in men’s ODIs; he has scored 50+ in each of his two ODI innings in Sri Lanka (52, 58).
- Dasun Shanaka (903) is 97 away from scoring 1,000 runs for Sri Lanka; however, his ODI batting average against Afghanistan (8) is his lowest against any team (min. 2 innings).
- Batters have played and missed at 24% of Fazalhaq Farooqi’s (Afghanistan) balls bowled in men’s ODIs in 2022, the highest rate of any player from a Test playing country this year (min. 10 overs bowled).
