  • The winner of this game will clinch the series; indeed, three of the previous four bilateral men's T20I series between South Africa and Australia have been won by the visiting team of the series, including a 2-1 win to Australia on their last T20I excursion to South Africa in March 2016.
  • South Africa will be on the hunt for back-to-back wins against Australia in men's T20Is for the first time since March 2009 after clinching a 12-run win in the second game of this series.
  • South Africa tied Sri Lanka after 20 overs in their last men's T20I at Newlands, going on to win via Super Over; prior to that game, they had won only two of their previous eight games at the venue (L6).
  • Australia will be looking to clinch four consecutive multi-game bilateral men's T20I series wins after having been winless in their four such series prior (D2, L2).
  • Australia have a batting average of 68 against spin in men's T20Is since the beginning of 2019, the highest of any Test-playing nation in that time and almost double that of South Africa (35.7).
  • David Warner (Australia) has scored 400 runs in men's T20Is between Australia and South Africa, the most of any player; though, South Africa's Quinton de Kock has a batting average of 34.6 in such fixtures, the second highest of any player (min. 10 innings).
  • Tabraiz Shamsi (South Africa) has only conceded one boundary (a six) across his 48 legal deliveries in this series, the best rate by any bowler (2.1%).
  • Steven Smith (Australia) has a dot ball rate of just 24.1% this series, the lowest of any batsman to have faced at least six deliveries; in fact, Smith has finished each of his last three T20I innings with a dot ball rate of 25% or below.
  • Kagiso Rabada (South Africa), Lungi Ngidi (South Africa) and Kane Richardson (Australia) have each bowled 14.3% of their total deliveries on a short length this series - the most of any players (min. 5 overs); however, Richardson (2) is the only player to have taken multiple wickets via short balls.
  • Aaron Finch (Australia) is 66 runs away from becoming the ninth player in men's T20I history to score 2,000 runs and just the second Australian.
