- New Zealand have lost only one of their last eight men's T20Is against Sri Lanka (W6, T1) – a 37-run defeat (6 September 2019).
- New Zealand are winless in their last four men's T20Is at home (T2, L2); the last time the Black Caps recorded a longer winless run at home in the format was a seven-match span from 8 November 2019 to 2 February 2020 (T3, L4).
- Sri Lanka have won only two of their last eight men's T20Is against Test playing countries (T1, L5); they had won six consecutive such fixtures prior to that span.
- Only England (14.7) and Australia (17.5) amongst full-member sides have a better bowling average in the death overs (17th-20th) of men's T20Is since the start of 2022 than Sri Lanka (18.4).
- New Zealand have a batting dot ball rate of 35% in men's T20Is since the beginning of 2022, the best of any Test playing country in that time and four percentage points lower than Sri Lanka (39%).
- Sri Lanka have taken 25% of their wickets via a bowled dismissal in men's T20Is since the start of 2022, the second highest rate among full-member sides (Pakistan – 29%); 42 of Sri Lanka's 166 wickets in that time have come via this method.
- Daryl Mitchell (954) is 46 away from becoming the eighth New Zealand batter to reach 1,000 runs in men's T20Is; Mitchell has registered two 50+ scores in his last four T20I innings, including a 66-run knock against Sri Lanka in the first match of this ongoing series.
- Kusal Perera (13) is one away from equaling Tillakaratne Dilshan (14) for the most scores of 50+ for Sri Lanka in men's T20Is; his T20I batting average in New Zealand (76) is his best in any country.
- Maheesh Theekshana (Sri Lanka) has conceded 39% of his runs via boundaries when bowling during the death overs (17th-20th) in men's T20Is since the beginning of 2022 – the second-best rate of any player from a Test playing country (min. 10 overs bowled) in that time (Luke Jongwe – 35% for Zimbabwe).
- Ish Sodhi (7) is three away from equalling Trent Boult (10) as the leading wicket taker for New Zealand against Sri Lanka in men's T20Is; the last time Sodhi took three or more wickets in a T20I innings was 27 July 2022 (4-28 v Scotland).
