- India are looking to extend their eight-series winning streak on home soil (2+ games) in men's Test cricket, a win in this encounter will secure their ninth in a row; they have not lost such a series since December 2012 (v England).
- India have lost only two of their last eight men's Tests against South Africa (W5, D1); they've beaten the Proteas in their two most recent encounters, winning the toss and electing to bat on both of those occasions.
- India are unbeaten in their last six men's Tests against South Africa at home (W5, D1); their last defeat in such a fixture coming back in February 2010.
- South Africa have tasted defeat in three successive men's Test matches, it is worth noting that they have not endured a longer such run since logging a five-game stretch between December 2005 and March 2006.
- India are undefeated in their last 10 men's Tests played on home soil (W7, D3), they are currently enjoying a four-game winning streak there.
- Rohit Sharma (India) has averaged 97 in his 16 Test knocks to have taken place in India compared to just 26 on the road (33 innings); all five of his centuries in the Test arena have all come on home soil.
- Rohit Sharma posted scores of 176 and 127 in the previous encounter with South Africa; it was only the ninth instance of an Indian batsman recording two centuries in a single men’s Test match, the first since 2015 (Rahane v South Africa).
- Dean Elgar (South Africa) has struck more centuries in Test cricket than any other opener since the start of 2017 (seven); one of them coming in the series opener in Visakhapatnam (160).
- Faf du Plessis (1,994) is six runs shy of becoming the third South African to score 2,000 Test runs as captain, behind Graeme Smith (8,647) and Hansie Cronje (2,833).
- Ravichandran Ashwin (India) took 7/145 in South Africa's first innings last time out; he has never claimed more wickets in a Test innings.
