The West Indies cricket team has failed to secure direct qualification for the 2027 50-over World Cup for the third consecutive time. Currently ranked tenth, the team is unable to break into the top eight of the rankings by the September 30 cutoff date.
The tournament is scheduled to take place in South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia from October 4 to November 21, 2027. While host nations and the top eight teams in the rankings qualify automatically, the West Indies must now compete in a qualifying tournament held in February and March next year. To reach the main World Cup event, the team must finish within the top four of that qualifying round.
