- New Zealand have lost only one of all their seven multigame bilateral men’s T20I series against West Indies (W4 D2) – a 0-2 loss in July 2012; the Black Caps are undefeated in their five series against them since then (W4 D1).
- New Zealand have lost each of their last two multigame bilateral men’s T20I series, after losing only one of their 11 series prior (W5 D5); the Black Caps haven’t lost more than two consecutive such series in the history of the format.
- West Indies will be aiming for consecutive wins in multigame bilateral men’s T20I series for the first time since August 2024, following their 3-0 victory against Bangladesh last time out (October 2025).
- New Zealand have lost their last three men’s T20Is at Eden Park after going undefeated across their five matches at the venue in the format prior to that span (W4 T1); the last and only time the Black Caps recorded a longer losing run in such fixtures was a five-match span from January 2016 to February 2018.
- New Zealand have a collective batting average of 29.4 in men’s T20Is in 2025, the highest of any full member team and almost five runs higher than West Indies (24.7); in addition, their batting dot ball rate of 33.9% is the second best of any full member side this year (England - 33.7%).
- Only Ireland (4.3%) have seen batters leave a higher percentage of their balls bowled than West Indies (3.7%) and New Zealand (3.6%) in men’s T20Is in 2025 amongst Test playing countries.
- Tim Robinson (New Zealand) has scored 22 runs at an average of 7.3 across his last three T20I innings (13, 7, 2) after averaging 209 in his four innings prior in the format (18*, 75*, 10, 106*).
- Jason Holder (West Indies) has taken 28 wickets in men’s T20Is in 2025, the second most of any player from a full member team (Rishad Hossain – 29 for Bangladesh); in fact, he is one away from recording the outright most wickets of any player for West Indies in a calendar year in the history of the format (also Jason Holder – 28 in 2022).
- Jacob Duffy (New Zealand) has taken 25 wickets in men’s T20Is in 2025 – the most by a Black Caps pace bowler in a calendar year in the history of the format (Tim Southee – 24 in 2021); only Ish Sodhi (28 in 2022, 27 in 2021) has logged more overall for the Black Caps in the history of the format.
- Shai Hope (West Indies) has scored 45+ runs in each of his last two T20I innings (46*, 55), after recording fewer than 25 runs in each of his five innings prior; the last time he batted against New Zealand was his debut in the format (15 runs on 29 December 2017).
