- England have won four of the last six home Test series played against India; the tourists recording just one series victory in that time (D1).
- India have lost back-to-back Test series in England, last winning one in 2007; they did claim victory when these sides last met, registering a comfortable 4-0 win on home soil (November - December 2016).
- England come into this game having ended a run of eight Test matches without recording a victory (D2 L6), doing so after their innings win over Pakistan at Headingley last time out; surprisingly, just one of England's last 27 Test matches to have been played on home soil has ended in a draw.
- India have only tasted defeat three times in their last 33 Test matches, winning 23 of those 30 games (D7); they've only managed one victory in their last 10 attempts against England on the road however (D2 L7).
- India have taken on England six times before at Edgbaston in Test cricket; they have never recorded victory there, losing five of those six encounters (D1).
- This will be England's 1,000th Test match, no side has ever played that many; they have won 357 of the 999 they have participated in to date (D345 L297).
- Alastair Cook's highest ever Test score came at Edgbaston, when England last faced India at the venue (2011 - posting 294 off 545 balls); he is 144 runs away from becoming the first batsman to post 1,000 Test runs at Edgbaston.
- Virat Kohli has played one Test series in England before, managing to score 134 runs across 10 innings at an average of just 13.4 in 2014; this is the lowest rate he's managed in a country.
- James Anderson (86) is 10 scalps away from becoming the all-time leading wicket-taker in Tests between England and India (Bhagwath Chandrasekhar, 95); Jimmy will have just celebrated his 36th birthday by the time these sides meet at Edgbaston, he's got the best average of anyone to take 50+ Test wickets since the start of 2017 (19.1).
- Shikhar Dhawan (97.1%) and Virat Kohli (93.5%) are two of the three batsmen with the highest 'good connection rates' in Test cricket since the start of last year (Kane Williamson 95.9% - 300+ runs scored); Alastair Cook (89.3%) is the highest ranked England player in this list, 24 spots below Kohli.
