Overall: who has the most?
Counting only senior men’s ICC trophies (ODI World Cup, T20 World Cup, Champions Trophy and WTC), Australia has 10 and India has 8. Adding women’s events, Australia is far ahead. A March 2026 article from ETV Bharat put Australia at 27 total ICC titles and India at 17, but that count includes Under-19 events and was written before India’s third T20 World Cup. Different websites count shared titles and junior events differently, so treat any grand total with care.
| Team | Men’s senior ICC titles (our count) | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Australia | 10 | 6 ODI WC, 1 T20 WC, 2 Champions Trophy, 1 WTC |
| India | 8 | 2 ODI WC, 3 T20 WC, 3 Champions Trophy |
| West Indies | 5 | 2 ODI WC, 2 T20 WC, 1 Champions Trophy |
| England | 3 | 1 ODI WC, 2 T20 WC |
| Pakistan | 3 | 1 ODI WC, 1 T20 WC, 1 Champions Trophy |
| Sri Lanka | 3 | 1 ODI WC, 1 T20 WC, 1 Champions Trophy (shared) |
These counts include shared titles. We could not find one official ICC page that gives a single grand total, so the table above is our own tally from the per-event winner lists.
How the counts work
People often disagree about how many ICC trophies a team has, and the reason is simple: there is no single official list. Some writers count only men’s senior events. Others add women’s events and Under-19 World Cups. A few leave out the Champions Trophy shared title of 2002, or count the old ICC KnockOut (1998 and 2000) as a Champions Trophy. This page lists every winner by event so you can add up the numbers the way you want.
Interesting patterns
- Australia won three men’s ODI World Cups in a row (1999, 2003, 2007) and has the longest list of women’s wins too.
- India’s women won their first ODI World Cup in 2025, while the men’s side added a T20 World Cup in 2024 and another in 2026.
- West Indies won the first two ODI World Cups (1975 and 1979) and two men’s T20 World Cups (2012 and 2016).
- South Africa’s 2025 WTC win was its first major ICC title since the 1998 ICC KnockOut.
- New Zealand won both the first WTC final (2021) and the 2024 Women’s T20 World Cup.
Where to verify
For the latest winners, the ICC website lists every past edition under each event’s page. Wikipedia pages for each tournament also carry full result tables. If a new event ends after October 2026, the numbers above will need an update.
What is coming next
The 2027 Men’s Cricket World Cup is set for 2 October to 21 November 2027 in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia. The women’s Champions Trophy is reported for February 2027. For full dates, see our ICC schedule post.
In short, Australia dominates the overall list, India leads in T20 World Cups and Champions Trophy, and new names like South Africa (WTC 2025) keep widening the list.
