- Sri Lanka have never lost a men's bilateral ODI series to Bangladesh; this will be the eighth such series between these sides, the Lions winning five of the previous seven (D2).
- Bangladesh have only managed to register wins in seven of their 44 ODI completed men's ODI fixtures against Sri Lanka (L37); they have slumped to defeat in three of their last four versus the Lions.
- R.Premadasa Stadium is hosting a men's ODI fixture between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh for the eighth time; all of the previous seven fixtures have been won by Sri Lanka.
- Sri Lanka are looking to register their fourth victory on the bounce in men's ODIs at R.Premadasa Stadium; before their win in the series opener, they saw off South Africa and England during their only outings at the Colombo venue in 2018.
- Sri Lanka and Bangladesh come into this bilateral series on the back of ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2019 where both these sides failed to progress from the group stage; both teams picked up three wins as the Lions (L4, NR2) finished sixth out of 10 sides and the Tigers ended in eighth (L5, NR1).
- After enjoying a five-match winning run in men's ODIs, Bangladesh have since suffered six defeats in eight in this format (W2), whilst Sri Lanka have alternated between victory and defeat across their last 10 outings in ODI cricket, they won last time out in the series opener against the Tigers at this very venue.
- Sri Lanka posted the two highest scores at ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2019 after the first powerplay (overs 1-10); recording 87 and 79 against Australia and Afghanistan respectively.
- Kusal Perera (Sri Lanka) comes into this match having registered his second ODI century on home soil; his 111 against Bangladesh coming off just 99 balls (112 strike rate).
- Mushfiqur Rahim (Bangladesh) scored 67 in the series opener at this very venue, it was his 200th innings in the format; he failed to post more than 30 across any of his 10 ODI knocks in Sri Lanka beforehand.
- Lasith Malinga signed off his ODI career with figures of 3/38 in the 1st ODI of this series, moving him to 9th in the all-time ODI wicket-taking list; he managed to bowl 42 dot balls in that game which is more than any Sri Lanka bowler recorded in any ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2019 game.
