  • The results are split at two wins apiece in the last five completed T20I matches between New Zealand and Sri Lanka, with one tie - their last encounter was in January 2016 at Eden Park.
  • Sri Lanka have won just one T20I on New Zealand soil, winning by 18 runs in December 2006 - since then, they have suffered three losses in New Zealand, including their last encounter in January 2016.
  • New Zealand will be out to avoid a seventh straight loss in the T20I format, which would equal the nation's worst-ever losing streak in the format after a string of seven losses between September 2007 and June 2008.
  • New Zealand have lost their last five T20I matches at Eden Park in Auckland, despite winning the toss on four occasions in that time.
  • Sri Lanka posted two of their seven highest away T20I totals in their two most recent matches played on the road, notching up totals of 4/210 and 4/194 - both games were against Bangladesh in February 2018.
  • No team was dismissed bowled in T20I cricket more often in 2018 than Sri Lanka (29.5%) - New Zealand were dismissed 25% of the time in this method in T20Is in 2018.
  • Colin Munro (New Zealand) posted the second-fastest T20I fifty in the last encounter between these sides in January 2016, blasting his way to a half-century off just 14 balls.
  • Thisara Perera (Sri Lanka) had a T20I strike-rate of 178 in 2018 - only Colin Munro (178.6) had a better strike rate amongst players who had scored 200+ runs in the year.
  • Kusal Perera (Sri Lanka) has passed 60 runs in four of his past seven T20I innings - however in each of his other three innings, he has failed to score more than four runs.
  • Ish Sodhi (New Zealand) needs two more wickets to surpass Daniel Vetorri (38) and move into second spot for most T20I wickets claimed by a New Zealand spinner - only Nathan McCullum (58) has taken more.
