2 - Consecutive fifty plus scores for David Warner in Asia. This is the first time he's done this in the subcontinent. Warner now has three fifty plus scores from his last five Test innings in Asia. He had five from his previous 24 innings.

18 - The number of consecutive series since debut where Steven Smith has scored at least one half-century. It's the joint second-highest along with Len Hutton in the last 100 years. England's Marcus Trescothick leads this pack with a half-century in each of the 22 Test series he was a part of.

2 - Only twice have Australia passed 200 for the loss of no more than two wickets in Asia since 2008.

1 - Only one wicket has fallen to a Bangladesh fast bowler in the last four Tests at home. Mustafizur Rahman struck early on the second day in Chittagong to remove Matt Renshaw. Fifty eight of the sixty wickets Bangladesh have taken at home in the last four Tests have gone to the spinners.
