They won the inaugural edition on their home soil in 1973 before winning the biggest prize in women's cricket three more times in 1993, 2009 and 2017. The triumph in 2017 also earned them the prestigious BBC Sports Team of the Year Award.
The England women's cricket team has also finished runners-up four times in the ODI World Cup - 1978, 1982, 1988 and 2022.
