  • Afghanistan will be out to claim their third T20I bilateral series win over Ireland with a victory in this fixture, after triumphing in each of the two-previous series.
  • Ireland have lost their last eight T20I matches against Afghanistan; last beating them in 2013.
  • Afghanistan have recorded victories in all eight of their T20I fixtures since the start of 2018, with their last three victories coming against Ireland despite losing the toss twice.
  • Afghanistan have won their last three T20I bilateral series and will be looking to secure a fourth successive T20I bilateral series victory for the second time, after a run of four series win from November 2015 - March 2017.
  • Ireland have won just once in their last 10 completed T20I fixtures against teams from Asia, their won win in this span coming against Oman last month.
  • George Dockrell struck his highest T20I score in the first match of the series (34*) - this was just his second T20I match batting at higher than number seven in the order.
  • Afghanistan's Najibullah Zadran has finished not out in 10 of his last 18 T20I innings; he has scored 315 runs in this time, at a strike rate of 137.6.
  • Samiullah Shenwari has the opportunity to become only the fourth batsman to reach 1,000 T20I runs for Afghanistan (Mohammad Shahzad, Asghar Afghan & Mohammad Nabi); he needs 15 in order to get there.
  • Mohammad Nabi (Afghanistan) struck his third-highest T20I score in the first match of this series (49*); he has claimed two wickets in three of his four games at this venue in Dehradun, conceding less than five runs an over there.
  • Boyd Rankin requires two more wickets to go above Alex Cusack (35) as Ireland's third-highest wicket-taker in T20I cricket; Rankin picked up two scalps in the series opener with Afghanistan.
