- New Zealand have won their last three Test matches against Pakistan, currently their best winning streak against the men in green.
- Pakistan have lost just one Test match in 2018 so far (W3, D1); the last time they completed a calendar year with just one Test loss was in 2015 (W5, D2).
- New Zealand are undefeated in their last five Tests (W3, D2) and will be looking to stretch that run to six matches for the first time since a glut of eight games between October 2013 - June 2014 (W4, D4).
- Pakistan have lost just one of their 11 Tests at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium (W6, D4) but will be searching for back-to-back wins at the venue for the first time since 2014 after their 373-run victory over Australia there in October this year.
- New Zealand have not played a Test match away from home since 2016; they lost all three Tests to India on that occasion and failed to surpass 300 runs in any Test innings.
- Pakistan's bowlers have dismissed their opponents for less than 200 in three of their last four innings at Sheikh Zayed Stadium - however the last time New Zealand toured the United Arab Emirates in 2014, they averaged 367 runs per innings across five knocks.
- No bowler has a better Test bowling average in 2018 than Pakistan's Mohammad Abbas (12); he averages three wickets per innings in his 10-match Test career so far.
- Kane Williamson (5,338) is just 107 runs shy of going above Martin Crowe for Test match runs - only three other New Zealanders sit above Crowe on the run-scorers list (Ross Taylor - 6,281; Brendon McCullum - 6,453; Stephen Fleming - 7,172).
- New Zealand's Neil Wagner has a Test bowling average of just 18.1 against Pakistan; only against Zimbabwe (17) does Wagner have a better Test bowling average.
- Asad Shafiq (3,933) is just 67 runs away from reaching 4,000 Test runs; he scored a century in his last Test against New Zealand in the United Arab Emirates (137, November 2014).
