  • This will be the first men’s T20I between New Zealand and Afghanistan; the Black Caps have won each of their last three games in the format in Asia, while Afghanistan have won only one of their last three such fixtures (L2).
  • New Zealand have won four of their last five men’s T20Is (L1), including each of their last three in succession; indeed, the Black Caps’ 11 victories in the format in 2021 is their most in a calendar year.
  • Afghanistan have lost two of their last three men’s T20Is (W1), after recording an nine-match unbeaten run prior (W8, T1); they will be looking to avoid consecutive defeats in the format for the first time since a three-match span from September to November in 2019, following their 66-run loss to India last time out.
  • New Zealand have won each of their last three ICC Men’s T20 World Cup matches; the last and only time the Black Caps enjoyed a longer winning run at the tournament was a four-match span in March 2016.
  • Afghanistan have had a batting strike rate under 150 in each of their last three men’s T20I innings, after surpassing that mark in five of their six innings prior.
  • New Zealand have hit more than five sixes in each of their last two men’s T20I innings, after doing so only once in their seven innings prior.
  • Mohammad Nabi (113) is 12 away from recording the third most runs by an Afghanistan player in a single ICC Men’s T20 World Cup (Noor Ali Zadran – 124 in 2016); he has scored 30+ runs in three of his last four T20I innings at the Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium in Abu Dhabi.
  • Martin Guptill (New Zealand) is six away from becoming the second all-time leading run scorer for the Black Caps in ICC Men’s T20 World Cup history (Ross Taylor – 562); indeed, Guptill’s 148 runs in the 2021 campaign so far is the third most by a Black Caps player at a single edition (Brendon McCullum – 212 in 2012 and Craig McMillan – 163 in 2007).
  • Rashid Khan (Afghanistan) has taken 11 wickets in men’s T20Is at the Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium in Abu Dhabi, only three players have taken more at the ground (Bilal Khan – 19 for Oman, Rohan Mustafa – 15 for United Arab Emirates and Zeeshan Maqsood – 12 for Oman).
  • Tim Southee (New Zealand) is two away from becoming the second all-time leading wicket taker for the Black Caps in ICC Men’s T20 World Cup history (Daniel Vettori – 20); Southee has taken at least one wicket in each of his last eight T20I bowling innings, including multiple on four occasions in that span.
