- England defeated India by five wickets when they last met in the first men’s Test of this series (June 2025), snapping a four-match losing run against them in the format; they will be aiming for consecutive wins in men’s Tests against them in a calendar year for the first time since September 2018.
- England have won each of their two men’s Tests in 2025 (Zimbabwe in May by an innings & 45 runs and India in June by 5 wickets); the last time they started a calendar year on a longer winning run in the format was in 2021 (W3).
- India have won only one of their last nine men’s Tests (D1 L7) – a 295-run victory against Australia in November 2024; they are winless in their five matches since then (D1 L4), the last time they recorded a longer run without a win in the format was a nine-match span (D3 L6) from July 2014 to August 2015.
- England defeated West Indies by 10 wickets in their most recent men’s Test at Edgbaston (July 2024); they will be aiming for consecutive wins at the venue in the format for the first time since August 2018.
- Batters have played a false shot on 29.4% of India’s balls bowled in men’s Tests since the beginning of 2024, the best rate of any team; in addition, their bowling strike rate (42.2) is the best of any team in the format in that time.
- England have recorded a batting dot ball rate of 64% in men’s Tests since the beginning of 2024, the best of any team and six percentage points fewer than the next best (Pakistan – 70%); in addition, England (once every 11.3 balls faced) and India (once every 13.5 balls faced) have hit boundaries more frequently than any other teams during this period.
- Joe Root (102 for England) is one away from equaling Jacques Kallis (103 for ICC & South Africa) and Ricky Ponting (103 for Australia) for the second most scores of 50+ in men’s Test history (Sachin Tendulkar – 119 for India); Root has scored 424 runs at an average of 141.3 across his last five Test innings at Edgbaston in Birmingham.
- Yashasvi Jaiswal (1,903) is 97 away from becoming the 44th player to score 2,000 runs for India in men’s Test history; if he achieves the milestone in his next innings (39*) he’ll become the fastest player to reach it for India (Rahul Dravid – 40 innings and Virender Sehwag – 40 innings).
- Ben Duckett (England) has scored 351 runs at an average of 117 across all his three Test innings in England in 2025 (140, 62, 149) after recording 50+ scores just once in his eight innings prior at home.
- Only Australia’s Scott Boland (20.5% from 101.4 overs bowled) has seen batters play and miss at a higher percentage of their deliveries in men’s Tests since the beginning of 2024 (min. 60 overs bowled) than India duo Akash Deep (17.6% from 146.5 overs bowled) and Jasprit Bumrah (17.6% from 410.4 overs bowled).
