  • This will be the 100th men's Test between Australia and India, just the seventh fixture in the game's history to reach a century of iterations; Australia have won 43 of their previous 99 men's Tests against India (D27, L28).
  • Australia will be on the hunt for back-to-back men's Test wins against India for the first time since December 2014 after notching an eight-wicket win in the first match of this series.
  • Australia lost their last men's Test against India at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, snapping a seven-game unbeaten run for them in such fixtures (W5, D2); in fact, Australia have lost only one of their last nine men's Tests overall at the MCG (W6, D2).
  • India have won their last four Tests on the bounce without Virat Kohli in the side, including an eight-wicket win against Australia in March 2017 – their only previous match against Australia without Kohli since his debut in 2011.
  • India have lost their last three men's Tests away from home in succession; the last time they endured a longer losing streak on the road was a five-match run in 2014 which included two defeats to Australia.
  • Steven Smith (1,431) needs just 69 runs to become the fifth Australian men's player to reach 1,500 Test runs against India; his batting average of 79.5 from his 22 innings is the highest of any Australian to have logged more than six innings against them.
  • Cheteshwar Pujara (India) has a dot ball rate of 80% from 3,679 balls faced in Tests since the beginning of 2018, 1,593 balls more than the next busiest men's player with a rate of 80% or higher (Joe Denly – 2,086 balls faced).
  • Nathan Lyon (Australia) needs just nine more wickets to reach 400 in Test cricket; only Shane Warne (708) and Glenn McGrath (563) have taken more for Australia in the men's format.
  • Three of Prithvi Shaw's last six Test dismissals for India have seen him bowled out on the day, with all six of those dismissals coming against pace bowling.
  • Only 9.5% of Pat Cummins' 189 deliveries in the first Test of this series were on a short length, his lowest rate since March 2018 against South Africa (6.4%); however, he also produced his best bowling average (9.7) and strike rate (27) in a Test since January 2019.
