West Indies vs Australia Head to Head Record and Matches
Covers 92 matches between West Indies and Australia from May 2003 to Jul 2025 (Tests, ODIs and T20Is with ball-by-ball records).
The lowest total in the West Indies vs Australia head to head is 27 all out, by West Indies at Sabina Park in Jul 2025, and it gives a fair picture of how the matches have gone. Of the 92 games logged since May 2003, Australia have taken 64 and West Indies 21.
Australia then swept all five T20Is in the Caribbean that month, finishing with a 3-wicket win at Warner Park, Basseterre on 28 Jul 2025. Even so, T20Is remain the format where West Indies have pushed Australia hardest. The full breakdown follows.
West Indies vs Australia Head to Head: Format by Format
Australia lead the Tests 17 to 2 from 23 played, with 4 draws. Their heaviest win was by an innings and 212 runs at Hobart in Dec 2015, one of 2 innings wins, and the biggest by runs was 419 at Adelaide in Dec 2022. West Indies’ most recent Test victory came at The Gabba on 25 Jan 2024, by 8 runs, with Shamar Joseph (West Indies) taking 7/68. Australia then won all three Tests of Jun and Jul 2025.
ODIs run 31 to 8 Australia’s way, plus 1 tie and 2 no results from 42. The last of them, on 6 Feb 2024 at Canberra, followed a West Indies collapse to 86 and gave Australia a fourth straight win in the format.
The T20I record is much tighter, 16 to 11 from 27. The two widest West Indies wins in the whole rivalry are both T20Is: 74 runs in Colombo in Oct 2012 and 56 runs at Gros Islet in Jul 2021. See the West Indies team records and Australia’s records page for the wider context.
