- This will be the fifth men’s ODI game between Sri Lanka and Ireland with the Lions having won each of the head-to-head encounters played between the two sides; this will however be the first encounter between the two sides since a two-game bilateral series in June 2016 where the team from Asia won both the games.
- Ireland are currently on a six-game losing streak since March 2023, the last time they recorded a longer such streak was for seven games between March and December 2017.
- Ireland have a win percentage of 13% since the beginning of 2023 in men’s ODIs, the lowest of all teams to have at least played one game in the format in the same period; they have won just one of their eight completed games this year with the sole win coming against Zimbabwe in January.
- Sri Lanka have won each of their last two games on the road, the last time they recorded a longer such streak was for a three-game run in January 2018.
- Ireland are the only team in the ongoing men’s Cricket World Cup Qualifiers to record a 100% catch success rate having caught all of their 10 catches in the competition; Sri Lanka are third in the list with a catch success rate of 75%.
- Sri Lanka have registered a boundary once every 7.2 balls in the ongoing men’s Cricket World Cup Qualifiers, the best rate of any team in the competition; Ireland are sixth in the list having scored a boundary every 10.2 balls.
- Sri Lankan bowlers have logged a dot ball rate of 62.5% in the ongoing men’s Cricket World Cup Qualifiers, the highest such aggregate registered by any bowling team in this competition; Ireland, on the other hand have the least (48.7%).
- Curtis Campher (Ireland) has scored 42% of his team’s runs in the ongoing men’s Cricket World Cup Qualifiers, the highest such aggregate for any player in the competition; his teammate George Dockrell is third on the list (28.2) behind USA’s Shayan Jahangir (31.1%).
- Wanindu Hasaranga became the 16th bowler in men's ODI cricket and just the 2nd Sri Lankan after Ashantha de Mel to bag fifers in consecutive innings in the format (6/24 vs UAE & 5/13 vs OMA); only Waqar Younis has bagged three consecutive fifers in the format.
- George Dockrell (Ireland) is averaging 160 with the bat in the ongoing men’s Cricket World Cup Qualifiers, only Zimbabwe’s Sikandar Raza has a higher batting average than him in the competition; indeed, the trio of Dockrell, Raza and Sri Lanka’s Dimuth Karunaratne are the only batters to have registered a fifty in each of their innings batted (min. 2 innings).
