- England have won two of their last three men's Tests against Australia, including a 135-run win when they last met; though, they are winless in their last 10 away Tests to Australia (D1, L9) having last won in the country in January 2011.
- Australia have won seven of their last eight multi-game men's Test series against England on home soil (L1), not losing a single game in three of their last four series hosting the Ashes.
- Australia lost to India by three wickets in their last men's Test at the Brisbane Cricket Ground, snapping a 31-game unbeaten run at the Gabba in the format; their last defeat to England at the venue came in November 1986, picking up six wins and two draws in meetings there since.
- England have lost six of their last nine men's Tests heading into this series (W1 D2) and have lost their last three men's Tests away from home, the last time they lost more consecutive away Tests was a seven-game stretch from November 2016 to December 2017.
- Australia have a Test batting dot ball rate of 73% in men's Tests since the last time they faced England (September 2019), the lowest rate of any team; England have a 75% dot ball rate in that period.
- England have forced a false shot on 20% or more of balls they've delivered to their opponents in four of their last six men's Tests after having reached that mark only once in their six Tests prior.
- Sir Donald Bradman (19) and Sir Jack Hobbs (12) are the only players to have logged more centuries in the men's Ashes than Steven Smith (11); Smith has two double centuries, three centuries, and five half-centuries in his last 11 innings competing for the Ashes.
- Stuart Broad is set to play his 150th Test, becoming just the third player to appear in as many for England (James Anderson - 166, Alastair Cook - 161); Broad has bowled at least 70% of his deliveries on a length in each of his last three Test matches against Australia after doing so just once in his 18 Tests against them prior.
- Nathan Lyon's next Test wicket will be his 400th in the format, making him just the 17th player to reach the mark in the men's edition and the third to do so for Australia' Lyon has taken eight wickets across his last three Tests against England.
- Dawid Malan (England) has a batting false shot rate of just 13.7% against Australia in Tests, his lowest rate against any team he's faced; he has made a strong connection on 6.6% of balls faced against them.
