- Sri Lanka have alternated between a loss and a win in their last six men’s ODIs against Afghanistan (W3 L3), including their most recent loss by a six-wicket margin in the ongoing three-match series (2 June 2023).
- Afghanistan have lost just one of their last five multigame bilateral men’s ODI series (W3 D1), having drawn the most recent such series (vs. Sri Lanka); however, they have never beat the Lions in such a series.
- Sri Lanka have lost their last six completed men’s ODI matches on the bounce, last winning an ODI fixture on 30 November 2022 – against Afghanistan; the last time the Lions lost more such matches on the bounce was an eight-game streak between January and March 2019.
- Afghanistan have scored just 42% of their runs in men’s ODIs in 2023 from boundaries, the lowest of all teams; Sri Lanka (55%) are ranked second in this category during the same timeframe.
- Sri Lanka have recorded a catch success rate of 84.8% in men’s ODIs played in 2023, the second highest such rate (South Africa – 90%) of all full-member sides (min. 2 games played); the Lions have caught 28 of the 33 chances presented to them in the format so far in 2023.
- Afghanistan have logged a bowling dot ball rate of 73.3% during the Powerplay phase in men’s ODIs played in 2023, the highest such rate of all teams; Sri Lanka (66.1%) are joint seventh highest among full-member sides during the same timeframe.
- 13.3% of the deliveries Lahiru Kumara (Sri Lanka) has bowled in men’s ODIs since the start of 2023 have been left by opposing batters, the highest such rate logged by any bowler in the format.
- Mohammad Nabi (2,995 runs) is six runs away from becoming just the second Afghanistan batter to score 3000+ runs in men’s ODIs (Rahmat Shah – 3,138 runs); Nabi (145 wickets) is also six wickets away from becoming the second Afghanistan bowler with 150+ wickets in the format (Rashid Khan – 163 wickets).
- Following a 91-run knock in the 1st ODI of the ongoing series against Afghanistan, Charith Asalanka (900 runs) is now 100 runs away from reaching the 1,000 runs milestone in the format; if he manages to achieve the milestone in the 2nd ODI (25* inning), he will surpass Roy Dias (27 innings) to become the fastest Sri Lanka batter to score 1,000 runs in ODIs.
- Pathum Nissanka (Sri Lanka) has scored 62.5% of his 176 runs in men’s ODIs since the start of 2023 via boundaries, the third highest such rate among all batters (min. 200 balls faced); only India’s duo of Rohit Sharma (70.6%) and Shubman Gill (64.4%) have logged a better such rate during the same timeframe.
