  • This will be the first men's T20I between Pakistan and Namibia; Pakistan has a 100% winning record against non-Test playing countries in the format (7/7, not including combined teams).
  • Pakistan have won their last four men's T20Is on the bounce; the last time they enjoyed a longer winning run in the format was a nine-match span from July to November in 2018.
  • Namibia will be looking to avoid back-to-back defeats in men's T20Is for just the third time (November 2019 and October 2019), following their 62-run loss to Afghanistan last time out.
  • Pakistan have won each of their three games at this ICC Men's T20 World Cup; only twice have they enjoyed a longer winning run at a single edition of the tournament (W4 in 2009 and W4 in 2007).
  • This is set to be Namibia's fifth men's T20I against a Test-playing country; they have won only one of their four previous such fixtures (L4), an eight-wicket win over Ireland earlier in this ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2021.
  • Pakistan has a bowling dot ball rate of 50% or higher in two of their last five men's T20Is after not having done so even once in their 36 games prior in which they had bowled at least five overs.
  • Namibia has a batting strike rate of 86.7 during the powerplay at the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2021, the second lowest of any team during this period (Papua New Guinea – 85.2).
  • Haris Rauf has a bowling average of 14 thus far in the 2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup, the best of any Pakistan player in the history of the tournament.
  • Mohammad Hafeez (Pakistan) has scored 11 and 10 runs in his last two T20I innings in the UAE after having scored 30+ runs in six straight innings there prior; his T20I batting average of 52.8 in the UAE since the beginning of 2018 is the third highest of any player in the men's format (min. 4 innings).
  • David Wiese (Namibia) has hit eight sixes throughout the 2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup, two more than any other player from an associate member team.
