- Australia's first Test victory snapped a three-game losing streak against Sri Lanka; now, two of Australia's last three wins over the Lions has been by more than an innings.
- Australia are undefeated from their previous 14 Tests against Sri Lanka at home (W12, D2) and have won their last six home Tests on the bounce against them; three of those six victories by more than an innings.
- This will be the first Test match hosted at Manuka Oval in Canberra; Australia have won all four ODIs they have contested at the venue.
- Sri Lanka have won only two of their last 11 Tests played away from home (D5, L4) and have lost their last two.
- Australia will be looking to wrap up their first Test series win since the 2017/18 Ashes series; in fact, no previous Test series between Australia and Sri Lanka has ever seen both teams pick up a win.
- Australia come into this match at Manuka Oval aiming for back-to-back Test wins on home soil for the first time since winning seven on the bounce from November 2016 to December 2017.
- After taking his first 10-wicket haul in the last Test meeting between Australia and Sri Lanka, Pat Cummins is now just 10 shy of his 100th Test wicket; Cummins' bowling average of 6.2 against Sri Lanka is the best of any player in Test history.
- Dimuth Karunaratne (Sri Lanka) is 79 runs shy of his 4,000th in Test cricket, he would become the 11th player to reach the milestone for Sri Lanka should he make a sufficient knock in this Test.
- Marcus Harris (Australia) has a Test batting average of 37.8, the best of any Australian player in the last 12 months; he is yet to be dismissed for single figures in his Test career (9 innings).
- Sri Lankan duo Kusal Mendis (48) and Dimuth Karunaratne (47) are on the cusp of their 50th Test catches in the field (non-keeper); they would become just the 11th and 12th players to reach the milestone for Sri Lanka.
