- Bangladesh defeated New Zealand by six wickets in the second men’s ODI of the current series after winning only one of their previous 15 encounters; they will be looking for back-to-back wins over the Blackcaps for the first time since June 2017.
- New Zealand prevailed by 79 runs against Bangladesh in the only previous time in which these two teams went level into the final match of a men’s bilateral multigame ODI series (October 2008).
- Bangladesh have alternated between wins and losses in their last five men’s ODIs in Bangladesh, all played in 2026, including a win in the second match of the current series; they were unbeaten in their previous four home games prior to this calendar year (W3 T1).
- New Zealand’s loss in the second men’s ODI of this current series came after winning the toss, breaking a six-game winning run when winning the toss; the Blackcaps haven’t lost back-to-back games in the format after winning the toss since November 2023.
- Bangladesh have had a collective bowling economy rate of six or lower in their last 16 men’s ODIs including restricting New Zealand to under 250 runs in both matches of the current series; the last time any team scored at a better run per ball rate was when West Indies scored 325 runs in December 2024.
- New Zealand have scored at under five runs per over in the first two men’s ODIs of the current series after not falling under that benchmark in the 14 previous batting innings.
- Nick Kelly (New Zealand) scored 83 runs in the second men’s ODI of the current series, the highest score from a batter from either side; it was more runs than he had scored from his first four games in the format (56).
- Nahid Rana (Bangladesh) took 5/32 in the second men’s ODI, the second time he has take a five-wicket haul in his 10-game career; indeed, he has taken 19 wickets from his first 10 matches in the format, only Mustafizur Rahman (28) and Ebadat Hossain (20) took more wickets from the first 10 games for the Tigers.
- Will O’Rourke (New Zealand) has picked up five wickets in his last eight men’s ODIs, failing to pick up more than one wicket in any match; he had picked up multiple wickets in four consecutive games prior to that span.
- Towhid Hridoy (49) is one away from becoming the 33rd player to play in 50 men’s ODIs for Bangladesh; he has scored 210 runs at an average of 52.5 at Bir Sreshtho Flight Lieutenant Maitur Rahman Stadium.
