- India are currently enjoying a 19-game unbeaten run in Test cricket against the Windies (W10 D9); last losing to them in May 2002 in this format.
- The Windies will be hoping to improve upon their recent record in India; their most recent Test series win there came back in 1983, mustering three victories and two draws since.
- India have only tasted defeat once in their last 22 Test series on home soil (2+ games), that sole series loss coming in 2012 versus England (W17 D4); they do come into this game on the back of 4-1 defeat away in England however.
- India have recorded six losses from their nine Test matches in 2018 (W3); a defeat in this match will equal the most they have ever suffered in a single calendar year (seven from nine in 1959 and seven from 18 in 1983).
- The Windies have only managed to register three Test wins on the road since the start of 2013; losing 16 times and drawing on four occasions.
- India are set to play in their second Test match at Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Rajkot; the inaugural game was a draw between India and England in November 2016.
- Virat Kohli's lowest Test average is against the Windies (38.6, 13 innings); however, the India skipper has just registered a rate of 59.3 during the recent series in England having previously held a rate of 13.4 there beforehand.
- Virat Kohli has scored more Test runs in 2018 than anybody else (879); 121 more will mark his third consecutive calendar year posting 1,000 Test runs.
- Kraigg Brathwaite is set to make his 50th Test appearance in this game; he's posted centuries in two of his last three knocks for the Windies, another one will match his best return in a calendar year (3 in 2014).
- Ravichandran Ashwin took 11 wickets at an average of 32.7 for India over in England recently, his overall rate on the road stands at 31.8; the spinner has claimed 225 Test wickets in India at 22.8 however.
