Missing odi wc

Missing ODI WC: Ten years after the West Indies marked one of the most memorable nights in women’s cricket history, captain Hayley Matthews acknowledged that failing to qualify for the 2025 Women’s ODI World Cup 'hit them hard', stating the team wants to avoid experiencing such a setback again as the current squad possesses both the quality and confidence to deliver another outstanding Women's T20 World Cup performance.

As the Caribbean side prepares for the upcoming tournament in England, Matthews says the disappointment of recent setbacks has helped shape a more resilient and determined group.

The West Indies endured a difficult stretch in ICC competitions over the past two years. They narrowly missed a place in the final of the 2024 Women’s T20 World Cup after a heartbreaking semi-final defeat to New Zealand, before suffering the bigger blow of failing to qualify for the 2025 Women’s Cricket World Cup.
