As of my last update in June 2024, the best-performing country in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup history is the West Indies. They have a remarkable record in the tournament, having won the championship twice.
West Indies’ T20 World Cup Achievements:
- 2009 T20 World Cup: West Indies reached the semifinals.
- 2012 T20 World Cup: West Indies won their first T20 World Cup title, defeating Sri Lanka in the final.
- 2014 T20 World Cup: West Indies made it to the semifinals.
- 2016 T20 World Cup: West Indies clinched their second T20 World Cup title, beating England in a thrilling final.
Other Notable Performances:
- India: India won the inaugural T20 World Cup in 2007 and reached the final in 2014.
- England: England won the T20 World Cup in 2010 and were runners-up in 2016.
- Sri Lanka: Sri Lanka won the T20 World Cup in 2014 and were runners-up in 2009 and 2012.
- Australia: Australia won the T20 World Cup in 2021.
The West Indies’ success in the T20 World Cup is attributed to their powerful batting lineup, dynamic all-rounders, and effective bowlers, which have consistently made them a formidable team in the shorter format of the game.
