- South Africa have won two of their last three men’s T20Is against New Zealand, including a seven-wicket win in the first match of this ongoing series; they’ll be aiming to win back-to-back matches against the Black Caps in the format for the first time since August 2015.
- The last and only previous meeting between New Zealand and South Africa in a men’s T20I at Seddon Park was on February 19, 2012, when the visitors defeated the Black Caps by eight wickets; an unbeaten Richard Levi century steering the Proteas to a successful run chase.
- New Zealand are undefeated in their last five men’s T20Is at Seddon Park (W4 T1) including wins in their last three matches at the venue; a fourth straight win there would equal their best winning run at Seddon Park.
- New Zealand have won only six of their 14 completed men’s T20Is in 2026 for a win rate of 43%, their lowest win rate in a calendar year since 2010 when they won just four of 10 completed matches in the format (40%).
- South Africa have won six of their last seven men’s T20Is with all but one of those seven matches won by the team batting second on the day; though, South Africa have won only three of their last eight matches in the format when they’ve batted first on the day (T1 L4).
- New Zealand have made more stumpings at Seddon Park (5) than they have at any other venue in men’s T20Is including one by Devon Conway against Pakistan on January 14, 2024, a match in which he also made two catches.
- James Neesham (New Zealand) hit a boundary on 14% of his 21 balls faced in the first match of this ongoing men’s T20I series between New Zealand and South Africa, the most of any batter to face more than six deliveries; indeed, he’s hit two boundary fours per innings against South Africa in his T20I career which is his joint-most against any team.
- Gerald Coetzee (South Africa) has taken four wickets from three career T20I innings outside Africa – at least one in each – including figures of 2/14 against New Zealand in the first match of this ongoing series.
- Devon Conway (New Zealand) has been dismissed for one run or fewer in three of his last five T20I innings, including one run from five balls in the first match of this ongoing series against South Africa; in fact, he’s been dismissed for one run or fewer five times since the beginning of 2025 which is the most of any Black Caps batter in the format in that time.
- Connor Esterhuizen (South Africa) top-scored for the match with 45 runs in the first fixture of this men’s T20I series between New Zealand and South Africa after being dismissed for a duck in two of his previous three T20 innings; indeed, his score was the best of any South Africa opener on debut in a men’s T20I since Graeme Smith (61) against New Zealand in October 2005.
