- Afghanistan have won three of their last four ODIs against Ireland, including an eight-wicket triumph with 157 balls remaining in their most recent encounter.
- This will be the sixth ODI meeting between Afghanistan and Ireland in India, with each of the previous five seeing the team to win the toss on the day elect to bat first; Afghanistan have notched three wins to Ireland's two in this period.
- Afghanistan are winless in their last three ODIs (T1, L2); the last time they went longer without a win was a four-game losing streak from March to October 2015.
- This will be the first ODI played at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium at Dehradun; however, Afghanistan are undefeated in their six previous T20Is at the venue (W6).
- Ireland have lost five of their last eight ODIs heading into this series, a span which was preceded by a seven-game winning streak in the format.
- Ireland have won just two of their last five ODIs played away from home and will be looking to avoid back-to-back defeats on the road for the first time since losing four on the bounce in 2017.
- Mohammad Nabi (Afghanistan) is just 65 runs shy of becoming the second Afghani player to score 2,500 runs in ODI cricket behind teammate Mohammad Shahzad (2,508).
- Tim Murtagh (Ireland) took nine wickets in the last ODI series between Afghanistan and Ireland, more than any other player, including career-best figures of 4/30 in the second match of that series.
- Afghanistan's Mohammad Shahzad scored 124 runs from 116 balls against India in his last ODI appearance, his first ODI century since 2015; he's been dismissed for one run or fewer in three of his last five ODI innings against Ireland.
- Rashid Khan (Afghanistan) has taken 48 ODI wickets since the beginning of 2018, the second-most of any bowler in that span behind India's Kuldeep Yadav (55).
