Cricket

By virtue of their position in the ICC Women's T20I rankings (as of 1 April 2021), the West Indies qualified for the tournament;[8] their status as a multinational Caribbean team meant the associated quota had to be awarded to one of the associated countries. Following the cancellation of the 2021 Twenty20 Blaze tournament (the intended qualifier), Cricket West Indies declared the quota would go to Barbados, the reigning Twenty20 Blaze champions from 2018–19.[9]

Fixtures were announced in November 2021.[10]
