The West Indies women's cricket team, nicknamed the Windies, is a combined team of players from various countries in the Caribbean that competes in international women's cricket. The team is organised by the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB), a full member of the International Cricket Council (ICC), which represents fifteen countries and territories.

At the inaugural edition of the World Cup, in 1973, two teams that now compete as part of the West Indies, Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago, competed separately. A combined West Indian team made its Test debut in 1976 (almost 50 years after its male counterpart), and its One Day International (ODI) in 1979.

The West Indies currently competes in the ICC Women's Championship, the highest level of the sport, and has participated in five of the ten editions of the Women's Cricket World Cup held to date. At the 2013 World Cup, the team made the tournament's final for the first time, but lost to Australia. The Windies Women later reached the semifinals of the 2022 Women's Cricket World Cup.

At the ICC World Twenty20, the side only got to the semi-finals in the 2010, 2012, 2014, 2018 editions of the competition. As well the Windies Women eventually won their first title at the 2016 ICC Women's World Twenty20.
