- New Zealand won their most recent men’s Test by a single run (February 2023 v England), snapping a seven-match winless run in the format (D2, L5).
- Sri Lanka will be aiming for back-to-back wins in men’s Tests away from home for the first time since February 2019, following their 10-wicket victory against Bangladesh in their last such fixture (May 2022 in Mirpur).
- New Zealand lost their most recent men’s Test at Hagley Oval by 198 runs (February 2022 v South Africa), snapping an eight-match unbeaten run at the venue (W7, D1); the Black Caps will be looking to avoid back-to-back defeats there for the first time in the history of the format.
