  • Sri Lanka have won the last two bilateral multi-game men's Test series versus South Africa; they never managed to record three such series on the bounce against the Proteas, however.
  • South Africa have tasted four defeats in a row versus Sri Lanka in men's Test cricket; they previously went six games unbeaten against them in the format (W5 D1).
  • Sri Lanka have only ever recorded three men's Test victories in South Africa against the Proteas; two of those have come in their last two such fixtures there, however.
  • South Africa have taken on Sri Lanka four times before in men's Test cricket at SuperSport Park, winning all four of those prior contests at Centurion; the Proteas have recorded 20 victories out of a possible 25 there, losing only twice (v Australia in 2014 & versus England in January 2000).
  • South Africa come into this fixture with Sri Lanka having suffered three home men's Test defeats in succession - they have not lost four times in a row in South Africa since January 1950.
  • South Africa have taken 83% of their catches in men's Test cricket since the start of 2018, the highest share of any side across that period; five sides have recorded better rates than Sri Lanka in that time.
  • Both Faf du Plessis and Dean Elgar are closing in on 4,000 runs in men's Test cricket, requiring 99 and 112 respectively; only eight men have reached the milestone for South Africa.
  • Sri Lanka will be without Angelo Mathews for this series, he has been responsible for 27% of the total runs scored by the Lions in men's Test this year (277/1,026); only Marnus Labuschagne (34.2% for Australia) has a higher share for one side in 2020.
  • Kusal Mendis (Sri Lanka) is five runs away from recording 3,000 in Tests, he posted an unbeaten 116 in his last knock in the format (v Zimbabwe, January 2020); he's recorded 71 more runs from pull shots than any other batsman in men's Tests since 2018.
  • Dimuth Karunaratne (Sri Lanka) has scored more runs as an opening batsman in men's Tests since the start of 2017 than anyone else (2,383); he has failed to post more than 50 in any of his 10 Test knocks in South Africa, however.
