- Pakistan have lost their last multi-game bilateral men’s T20I series against England 4-3, they last lost two such consecutive series more than three years ago in November 2019.
- Pakistan have handed out T20I debuts to eight players since the start of 2022 in the men’s format, the most of all full-member sides alongside India and England.
- Afghanistan recorded 68 dot balls against Pakistan in the last game, their most in a men’s T20I game while bowling against a full-member side since logging 69 dot balls against Sri Lanka in the Asia Cup 2022 (27 August 2022).
- Pakistan batters have aggregated a singles percentage of 32% in men’s T20I cricket since the beginning of 2022, the most by any full-member side during the same period (also Bangladesh).

- Shadab Khan (Pakistan) has scalped 24 wickets in the middle phase of a T20I game (Overs 7-16) since the beginning of 2022, only Ish Sodhi (29) among all spinners have bagged more wickets during the same period than the Pakistani skipper.
