- India have won five of their last six men’s T20I games against South Africa including their last two on the bounce (L1); the Men in Blue have however lost their last home game in this format against the Proteas, losing that game by 49 runs In Indore in October 2022.
- South Africa have won 12 games against India in men’s T20Is, the joint-most against the Men in Blue alongside Australia and England; only against England (14) and Pakistan (13) have the Proteas won more in the format.
- India have won three of their seven multi-game bilateral men’s T20I series against South Africa including their most recent such series in 2024 by a 3-1 margin (D3 L1); South Africa’s only such series win came in 2015 when they won the two-match series 2-0.
- South Africa have won each of their two men’s T20I games played against India at the Barabati Stadium, Cuttack, batting second in each of those encounters with David Miller remaining not out in each of those two encounters (20* in 2022 & 10* in 2015).
- India have recorded a catch efficiency of 82.1% in men’s T20Is in 2025, the highest such rate by any full-member side; South Africa are fifth in this list with a catch success rate of 79% during the same period.
- Indian batters have hit a boundary once every 5.1 balls in men’s T20Is in 2025, only Australia (4.5) and England (4.6) have hit boundaries more often among full-member teams; South Africa are joint-sixth in this list having struck a boundary once every 5.9 deliveries.
- Tilak Varma (996) and Sanju Samson (995) are four and five runs away respectively from reaching 1,000 runs in men’s T20Is; if Tilak reaches the milestone in his next innings (his 34th), he would become the fifth-fastest Indian batter to do so behind Virat Kohli (27 innings), Abhishek Sharma (28), KL Rahul (29), and Suryakumar Yadav (31).
- Aiden Markram has won 14 matches in men’s T20Is as South Africa’s captain, a victory in this game would make him the joint-third most successful Proteas skipper in the format alongside Temba Bavuma (15 wins); only Faf du Plessis (23) and Graeme Smith (18) have won more matches as South Africa’s T20I captain.
- Jasprit Bumrah (99) and Hardik Pandya (98) are one and two wickets away respectively from reaching 100 wickets in men’s T20Is; Arshdeep Singh is currently the only Indian bowler to have taken 100 wickets in the format.
- David Miller has hit 35 boundary sixes against India in men’s T20Is (also Nicholas Pooran), only Glenn Maxwell has struck more sixes against the Men in Blue in this format – 38.
