History

Guyana joined the West Indies domestic structure in 1977, competing in the Federation Championships, in which they finished 4th out of 5 teams. [1] They competed again in the next edition of the tournament, 1980, winning two matches, against Grenada and Barbados. [2]

Guyana then did not compete in any tournaments until 2001, losing every match in their return season. [3] They have competed in most tournaments since, with a brief hiatus in 2006 and 2007, and joined the Twenty20 Blaze for its inaugural season in 2012. [4] In 2013, they reached the semi-finals of the T20 competition before losing to eventual winners Jamaica. [5] They achieved their best finish in the 50-over competition in 2014, reaching the final before losing to Jamaica. [6]

In the most recent season, 2023, Guyana finished as runners-up in the Twenty20 Blaze and finished 5th in the Super50 Cup. [7] [8]
