  • England are winless in their last three men's Test series (D1 L2), the last time they went longer without tasting success was a run of four series between 2001 and 2002 (D2 L2); this four-match series currently stands at one win apiece.
  • South Africa have lost each of their last two men's Test series, as many as they had lost in their 10 series prior (W8); they haven’t endured more consecutive series defeats since losing three in succession from 2004-2005.
  • England head into this fixture having recorded only their second victory on the road in men's Tests since the start of 2019 (D1 L4); they have not won back-to-back matches in the format overall since beating Ireland at Lord's (July 2019) after having beaten West Indies in St Lucia (February 2019).
  • South Africa have tasted defeat in six of their last seven men's Test matches (W1), they suffered a 189-run loss to England in Cape Town last time out; it was the first time England had won at Newlands in the format since January 1957.
  • South Africa have struggled in men's Tests against England at St George's Park, winning only once in such encounters (D3, L5); this will be the first meeting between the sides at the Port Elizabeth venue since 2004, a game which was won by the tourists.
  • Since World War Two, England have only managed to record back-to-back men's Test match victories in South Africa twice; Centurion in 2000 followed by Port Elizabeth in 2004 as well as a three-game run stretching from 1949 to 1957.
  • Ben Stokes is on 3,906 runs and 142 wickets, should he score 94 more runs he would become only the second England player with 4,000 runs and 100+ wickets after Ian Botham.
  • Kagiso Rabada (South Africa) has claimed at least four wickets in three of his last four Test innings at St George's Park in Port Elizabeth; he is the leading wicket-taker in this current series with England heading into the 3rd Test (12).
  • South Africa's Rassie van der Dussen has dropped more catches in this series than any other fielder; none of the three he's dropped so far have been rated as 'hard' chances (one easy and two medium).
  • Zubayr Hamza (South Africa) has been dismissed by England's Stuart Broad on three occasions already in this Test series; posting just 22 runs in response.
