Before this, India had won five consecutive matches, starting with their win against England in a league game of the 2007 World T20. England and Ireland have the longest streak of wins in T20Is, both having won eight matches on the trot.

Ashwin's figures were also the best at Mirpur, beating Samuel Badree's 4 for 15 against Bangladesh in an earlier league game in this tournament.
Yuvraj Singh's 60 is his third fifty against Australia and his eighth in T20Is. He has scored 247 runs against them at an average of 61.75 and a strike rate of 170.34. His highest T20I score also came against Australia in India's previous match against them, when he hit an unbeaten 35-ball 77.

Australia's 73-run defeat in this match was their third worst ever in T20 internationals when fielding first.

This was also India's second-biggest win in terms of runs. Their biggest win came against England in the last World T20 when they won by 90 runs.
