West Indies won the first two World Cups in 1975 and 1979 under the captaincy of Clive Lloyd. In 1983, they were defeated by India in the final. Later, they reached the semifinals only once, in 1996. In 2015, they were beaten in the quarterfinals.
Due to their loss of form, West Indies actually qualified for the 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup only by playing the qualifying rounds.
In the 2019 edition, West Indies begin their campaign at Trent Bridge on May 31, against Pakistan.
