- India have beaten Australia in each of their last two men’s Test matches, the last time the Men in Blue went on a longer winning run in this fixture was for four games in 2013.
- Australia are winless in their last four men’s Test matches against India (D1 L3), the last time the Baggy Greens endured a longer such streak was an eight game stretch from Jan 2008 to Oct 2010 (D3 L5).
- No team have beaten Australia more often in men’s Test matches since the beginning of the 21st century than India (20), three more than the next best team in the list (England – 17); in fact, India are the only team against whom the Baggy Greens have a win percentage lower than 50 during this period (34%).
- India have won 31 men’s Test matches against Australia (also England), a win against the Kangaroos at Delhi will make the Baggy Greens the team against whom India have been most successful in the format; a win in this game will also make Australia the team against whom the hosts have won most games at home in the format (currently tied with England – 22 wins).
- This will be the eighth men’s Test match encounter between India and Australia at the Arun Jaitley Stadium with the hosts winning three such fixtures while the visitors won one (D3); the sole win that Australia managed at the venue was the first game played between the two sides here in December 1959.
- India have a bowling strike-rate of 46.2 in men’s Tests since the beginning of 2022, the best of all teams in the format; Australia (60.2) are 14 points below India and are listed fourth in the category.
- Virat Kohli (24948 runs) is 52 away from becoming just the second Indian batter (Sachin Tendulkar – 34357) and sixth overall to get to 25000 runs in international cricket; he however has not scored 50+ runs in his last 10 innings in the Test format.
- Nathan Lyon (491wickets) is nine scalps away from becoming the sixth Australian bowler to get to 500 wickets in international cricket; he is also one dismissal away in becoming just the second Baggy Greens player to bag 100 wickets in all formats against India (Brett Lee – 111 wickets).
- Ravindra Jadeja (India – 249 wickets) is one dismissal away in getting to the 250 wickets landmark in Tests; in doing so he will become the fourth Indian (Anil Kumble, Kapil Dev and Ravichandran Ashwin) and 14th player overall to get to 2500 Test runs and 250 wickets in the format.
- Ravichandran Ashwin (India – 97 wickets) is three scalps away from becoming just the second bowler to get to 100 wickets in the Border Gavaskar Trophy (Anil Kumble – 111 wickets); his Australian counterpart Nathan Lyon (95) is meanwhile five dismissals away to the 100-wicket milestone in this competition.
