- This bilateral men's T20I series between West Indies and South Africa is currently tied at 2-2; West Indies will be aiming to win back-to-back series against the Proteas in this format for the first time, after winning their most recent iteration (2-1, January 2015).
- West Indies have won two of their last three multigame bilateral men's T20I series (L1), after winning only one of their 10 such series prior (D1, L8).
- A win for South Africa in this match would mark their first multigame bilateral men's T20I series triumph since March 2019 (3-0 v Sri Lanka); the Proteas are winless in such series since then (D1, L5).
- South Africa have won 57% of their men's T20Is against the West Indies (8/14), their second-best win rate against any team they have faced at least seven times (73% v New Zealand).

- South Africa have a batting false shot percentage of 26% in men's T20Is since the beginning of 2019; only two Test playing countries have a better rate in that time (India – 22% and Ireland – 23%).
- Fabian Allen (West Indies) has hit a boundary once every three balls in this men's T20I series, the most frequent rate of any batsman; Allen has also logged the best batting average of any player in the series (67).

- Andre Russell (West Indies) has a batting strike rate of 198 in men's T20Is since the beginning of 2018, the best by any player in that time (min. 60 balls faced).
- Quinton de Kock (South Africa) has scored 195 runs in men's T20Is at the National Cricket Stadium in Grenada, the most by any player and his most at any ground in this format.
