- Sri Lanka have met New Zealand four times previously at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium in men's T20I cricket; two of those coming in this series and they tasted defeat in both of them.
- New Zealand are 2-0 up and have already sealed victory in a multi-game bilateral men's T20I series away from home for the first time since October 2011 (v Zimbabwe).
- Sri Lanka are winless in their last seven men's T20Is (T1 L6), they haven't endured a longer winless drought in the format since an eight-match span from April-December 2017 (L8).
