Cold Numbers: Least Often Picked Numbers
On the other side of the spectrum are the cold numbers. These are the digits that have made the fewest appearances in the winning results recently. Some players avoid these, while others believe these numbers are “due” for a comeback.
Currently (over the last 50 draws in 2026), numbers in the 30s seem to be appearing less frequently, with 33 and 34 sitting at the bottom of the frequency table.
| Number | Frequency | Last Drawn |
|---|---|---|
| 33 | 2 | 2026-06-23 |
| 34 | 3 | 2026-06-19 |

Hot Pairs: Most Common Pairs
Tracking pairs is a popular way to see which numbers like to “travel together” in the same draw. For the last 50 draws period, the combination of 5 and 24 is the most frequent pair, having appeared together 5 times. Interestingly, number 5 appears in several top-performing pairs, showing its overall strength in the 2026 mid-year draws.
| Numbers | Frequency | Last Drawn |
|---|---|---|
| 5, 24 | 5 | 2026-06-24 |
| 23, 32 | 4 | 2026-06-01 |

| 5, 19 | 3 | 2026-06-24 |
| 4, 10 | 3 | 2026-06-07 |
Hot Triplets: Most Common Triplets
Triplets are much rarer than pairs, and seeing them repeat within a two-month window is quite notable. In the SA Daily Lotto, several triplets have appeared twice over the last 50 draws in 2026. Most notably, combinations involving the numbers 1, 10, 14, and 15 have shown multiple appearances.
| Numbers | Frequency | Last Drawn |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 20, 22 | 2 | 2026-06-20 |
| 1, 20, 25 | 2 | 2026-06-26 |
| 1, 11, 23 | 2 | 2026-05-22 |
| 3, 28, 35 | 2 | 2026-05-28 |
| 5, 19, 35 | 2 | 2026-06-24 |
| 4, 7, 15 | 2 | 2026-06-10 |
| 19, 22, 31 | 2 | 2026-05-23 |
| 10, 14, 15 | 2 | 2026-05-21 |
| 10, 14, 28 | 2 | 2026-06-27 |
| 1, 8, 36 | 2 | 2026-06-13 |
Understanding the Patterns
When looking at these statistics, it is interesting to observe the spread. The number 10 is currently a powerhouse, featuring as the top hot number, appearing in a top-four pair, and featuring in two separate hot triplets. For those who follow the “hot” strategy, 10 is the number to watch.
Conversely, the cold numbers often represent the higher end of the pool, with 33, 34, and 35 appearing infrequently. However, in the triplet data, we see that 35 has appeared in two different common triplets (3, 28, 35 and 5, 19, 35), suggesting that while it is drawn less often overall, when it does appear, it tends to be accompanied by specific partners.
Making the Most of Daily Lotto Statistics
Whether you are a casual player or a dedicated statistician, using this data can make your daily draw a little more engaging. Some players like to mix things up by picking two hot numbers, two cold numbers, and one random “gut feel” digit. Others prefer to play the hot pairs, hoping that the historical affinity between numbers like 5 and 24 continues.
Always remember that every draw is independent. While these stats show what has happened in the recent past, the machine has no memory of the previous night. Play for fun, play responsibly, and keep an eye on these shifting trends to see how the numbers evolve through the rest of 2026.
