West Indies have been denied a direct spot in the 2027 ODI World Cup and must go through the Qualifier in February.

Winning the Qualifier will secure direct entry to the tournament’s second round, while finishing second to fourth will leave them facing another hurdle.

The two-time ODI World Cup champions previously missed the 2023 World Cup and the 2025 Champions Trophy.
