- Australia have won each of their last two multigame bilateral men’s T20I series against West Indies (2-1 in February 2024 and 2-0 in October 2022); they had won only one of all their three series against them in the format prior to that span (W1 D1 L1).
- West Indies defeated Ireland 1-0 in their most recent multigame bilateral men’s T20I series (June 2025), snapping a four-series losing run in the format; they will be aiming for consecutive series victories for the first time since August 2024.
- Australia have lost only one of their last seven multigame bilateral men’s T20I series (W5 D1) – a 1-4 loss against India in December 2023; they are undefeated in their five series since then (W4 D1), a sixth unbeaten series here would be their outright longest run in the history of the format.
- West Indies have won each of their last four men’s T20Is at Sabina Park in Kingston; they had won just two of all their five matches at the venue in the format prior to that span (L3).
- Australia have logged a batting strong connection rate of 22.1% in men’s T20Is since the start of 2024, the highest of any full-member side; in addition, they have hit a boundary once every 4.5 balls faced, the most frequent of any team in that time.
- West Indies (2.60) and Australia (2.59) have recorded more runs per scoring shot than any other Test playing countries in men’s T20Is since the beginning of 2024; in addition, Australia (66%) and West Indies (63%) have logged the highest and third highest percentages of their total runs scored from boundaries (India – 65%).
- Rovman Powell (1,875) is 25 away from surpassing Chris Gayle (1,899) as the second all-time leading run scorer for West Indies in men’s T20Is (Nicholas Pooran – 2,275); he’s scored at least 25 runs only once across all his five T20I innings against Australia (63 on 11 February 2024).
- Glenn Maxwell (Australia) has hit a boundary once every two balls faced during the death overs (17th-20th) in men’s T20Is since the start of 2024, the most frequent of any player from a full-member side (min. 18 balls faced in this phase of the innings).
- Evin Lewis (15) is one away from equalling Chris Gayle (16) for the most scores of 50+ for West Indies in men’s T20Is; he scored 91 runs in his most recent T20I innings (15 June 2025 v Ireland) and will be aiming for consecutive 50+ scores for only the second time in the format (125*, 51, 58 from July 2017 to May 2018).
- Sean Abbott (Australia) has taken 12 wickets at a strike rate of 10.7 in men’s T20Is since the start of 2024, with only England’s Chris Jordan (10.4) recording a better rate amongst pace bowlers from full-member sides in that span (min. 20 overs bowled).
