- India have a chance to register a fourth consecutive multigame bilateral men's T20I series win over Sri Lanka, against no other team have they achieved this feat in this format; they are currently on a hattrick of such series wins against England and the West Indies as well.
- Sri Lanka have one win from their last 12 completed men's T20I matches against India (L11); this lone win was achieved in March 2018 when the Lions beat the Men in Blue by five wickets at the very same venue this match is being played.
- Sri Lanka have one win from their last 14 completed men's T20I matches (L13); that win came against West Indies earlier this year in March in the Caribbean.
- India have the chance to record their most consecutive multigame bilateral series wins in men's T20Is; they are currently on a six series winning streak, they had a similar run in such series between 2017-18; they currently lead the series 1-0.
- India have won their last three matches in men's T20I, the last time they registered more consecutive victories in the format was in January 2020 (W4); two of these matches were played against Sri Lanka.
- India have a batting dot ball rate of 40% in the powerplay overs in men's T20I since the beginning of 2020, the best rate amongst Test playing nations.
- Since the beginning of 2020, India have a good connection rate (batting) of 77% in men's T20I, the best amongst all Test playing nations; meanwhile, Sri Lanka have a good connection rate of 63% during that period (second worst).
- Bhuvneshwar Kumar needs one wicket to reach 50 men's T20I wickets for India, he will become the fourth player to achieve this feat for his country; he also has a chance to become the third highest wicket taker for the Men in Blue in this format, potentially eclipsing R. Ashwin who has 52 wickets to his name.
- Three of India's players have a bowling dot ball rate above 40% in this ongoing series against Sri Lanka (Deepak Chahar - 47%, Bhuvneshwar Kumar - 44% and Hardik Pandya - 42%), none of the Sri Lankan bowlers have a dot ball rate of above 40%.
