- New Zealand have won four of their last five men’s T20Is against South Africa (L1), including each of their last three; this is the only time the Black Caps have recorded consecutive wins against the Proteas in the history of the format.
- South Africa have won all their four ICC Men’s T20 World Cup matches against New Zealand; only Australia vs Bangladesh (W6), Pakistan vs Bangladesh (W6) and India vs Bangladesh (W5) have played more games against an opposition in the history of the tournament without losing.
- New Zealand have won their last four ICC Men’s T20 World Cup matches; a fifth consecutive win in this game would equal the Black Caps’ longest winning run in the history of the tournament (W5 from October to November in 2021).
- South Africa are undefeated from their two matches at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 (W1 T1); only in 2024 (W8), 2009 (W5) and 2007 (W4) have the Proteas started the tournament on a longer unbeaten run.
- New Zealand have scored 170+ runs in six of their last seven men’s T20I innings, including each of their last four; the last and only time the Black Caps logged a longer such scoring run in the format was a five-match span in July 2022.
- South Africa have taken at least three wickets during the powerplay in each of their last two men’s T20I bowling innings, as many times as they logged across their 15 innings prior in the format during this period; the last time the Proteas recorded 3+ wickets in more consecutive innings during the powerplay was a span of three in October 2022.
- Mitchell Santner has won both of his two appearances as captain of New Zealand at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup; only Lasith Malinga (W3 for Sri Lanka) has recorded more matches as captain in the history of the tournament and maintained a 100% win rate.
- Quinton de Kock (2,998) is two away from becoming the first player to score 3,000 runs for South Africa in men’s T20Is and the 13th overall in the history of the format; he’s scored 50+ in three of his last five T20I innings (65, 115, 28, 25, 59).
- Finn Allen and Tim Seifert have recorded a run rate of 11.7 as an opening partnership for New Zealand in men’s T20Is, the best of any opening pairing for the Black Caps in the history of the format; in fact, they’re one of only two opening pairs for the Black Caps (min. 2 innings) to record a run rate of at least 10 (Martin Guptill & Brendon McCullum – 10.1).
- Kagiso Rabada (30) is one away from surpassing Dale Steyn (30) for the outright second most wickets for South Africa in ICC Men’s T20 World Cup history (Anrich Nortje – 35); he’s taken exactly one wicket in each of his last three T20I innings overall.
