- This is the first time that India will be meeting Australia in the semifinals stage or later in ICC Champions Trophy history; the Men in Blue have won twice and lost once against the Baggy Greens in the competition, but the two sides haven’t played each other in the ICC Champions Trophy since 2006.
- India will be facing Australia outside India for the first time since December 2020 when they won by 13 runs in Canberra; in fact, the Men in Blue have won four of their last six men’s ODIs against the Baggy Greens outside India (L2).
- Australia have won each of their last 10 completed matches in ICC ODI events, last losing to South Africa on 12 October 2023 by 134 runs; they have, however, won only two of their last five games against India in such competitions (L3), including the most recent such meeting between the two sides in the final of ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023.
- India are unbeaten in nine men’s ODIs at Dubai International Cricket Stadium (W8 T1); a win in this game would make them just the second side to complete 10 games in the format at any ground without losing after New Zealand (P10 W10 at University Oval, Dunedin).
- Australia and India spinners have maintained a bowling strike rate of 33 and 34.3 respectively during ICC Champions Trophy 2025, the best and second best such aggregates of any team; in fact, only South Africa spinners have bowled at a better economy rate (4.1) than India spinners (4.5) in this tournament.
- Australia and India batters have scored 72.3% and 67.1% of their runs during the opening powerplay (overs 1-10) from boundaries in ICC Champions Trophy 2025, the best and second best such rate among all teams; Australia have scored a boundary every 4.1 balls in this phase of the innings in the tournament, the best such rate of any team.
- Spencer Johnson (Australia) has induced a false shot rate of 45.1% from opposition batters in ICC Champions Trophy 2025, the best such rate of any bowler; Harshit Rana (41.3%) is India’s best bowler in this category.
- Virat Kohli (49) is one away from becoming just the third India player to feature in 50 men’s ODIs against Australia (Sachin Tendulkar – 71, MS Dhoni – 55); Kohli has logged 22 scores of 50+ runs against Australia in the format and is one away from equalling Sir Viv Richards (23) for the second most such scores against the Baggy Greens in the format (Sachin Tendulkar – 24).
- Adam Zampa (12) needs one four-wicket haul in men’s ODIs to equal Shane Warne’s record of most such spells by any Australia spinner in the format (13); Zampa’s last four-wicket haul in men’s ODIs came in Asia (4 for 8 vs Netherlands on 25 October 2023), but he hasn’t managed to achieve this feat in any of his last 20 games in the format.
- Rohit Sharma (India) has hit a boundary every 5.2 balls in the ongoing ICC Champions Trophy 2025, the second best such rate of any batter to have faced at least 50 balls behind Heinrich Klaasen (5.1 balls per boundary); Australia’s Matt Short is ranked third in this category (5.8 balls per boundary).
