West Indies vs New Zealand Head to Head Record and Players
Covers 76 matches between West Indies and New Zealand from Feb 2003 to Jul 2026 (Tests, ODIs and T20Is with ball-by-ball records).
In the West Indies vs New Zealand head to head, the record book counts 76 games from Feb 2003 to Jul 2026, and New Zealand finished on top in 48. West Indies won 19. The other nine break down as 3 ties, 2 Test draws and 4 games with no result.
That lead holds in all three formats. The most recent game, though, went to West Indies: a 2-wicket ODI win at Kensington Oval, Bridgetown, on 21 Jul 2026, only two days after losing at the same ground by 1 wicket.
West Indies vs New Zealand Head to Head in Each Format
The Test record is the clearest gap. Since Mar 2006 the Test tally reads New Zealand 11, West Indies 3, draws 2, from 16 matches. West Indies have not won a Test in this match-up since a 10-wicket win at Port of Spain on 16 Jun 2014. Since then New Zealand have won seven and drawn one, finishing with a 323-run win at the Bay Oval on 18 Dec 2025.
The 35 ODIs have gone 24 to 10 the Kiwi way. The latest five, all in Jul 2026 in Guyana and Barbados, were much closer: New Zealand took three and West Indies two, and three of them were decided by 5 wickets or fewer.
T20Is have been cut short often. Of 25 games, 3 were tied and 3 had no result, leaving New Zealand 13 wins to 6. New Zealand have won the last 3. The full team records are on the New Zealand team page and the West Indies team page.

Batting First, Big Margins and Favourite Grounds
Defending a total has been the T20I formula: teams that batted first won 14 times, and chasers just 5. First innings here average 176. ODIs are nearly even, 18 batting first and 16 chasing. Calling right at the toss has been worth something in ODIs, where 21 of 34 decided games followed it, but Tests sit at an even 7 of 14.
Martin Guptill’s unbeaten 237 at Wellington on 21 Mar 2015 remains the one-day high point, part of a New Zealand total of 393/6. By margin, New Zealand’s best ODI result is a 204-run thrashing at Hagley Oval; West Indies’ best answer is a 203-run win at Hamilton on 8 Jan 2014.
Eden Park has hosted 9 meetings, the most of any ground, and they split 4 to New Zealand and 3 to West Indies. Sabina Park is the one venue where West Indies are ahead, 4 wins to 3.
