West Indies emerge as early trendsetters
The first edition of the men's ODI Cricket World Cup in 1975 was played in England featuring eight teams — England, India, Australia, Pakistan, West Indies, New Zealand, Sri Lanka and East Africa.
The West Indian cricket team, led by Clive Lloyd, won the inaugural World Cup by defeating Australia in the final by 17 runs at Lord’s.
Bowlers Keith Boyce, Andy Roberts and Bernard Julien and legendary batter Vivian Richards and Lloyd himself helped the Caribbean side win the Cup without losing a match.
England also hosted the next two editions of the World Cups. With their core intact, the West Indies won the 1979 edition as well, defeating the hosts by 92 runs in the final.

You are so hasty.
I meant THIS World Cup. If I ‘did was’ mislead you by not being clear I apologise from the bottom of my heart.

That's how I read it, although you are corrrect in both instances. But surely the early West Indies victories have a lesser value akin to Italy and Uruguay's titles in the football World Cup of the 1930s and 1950.

Your defenders have landed…fools all the same…imagine saying Pele’s wins for Brazil were the same as Mbappe and Messi…the first is always unique…. No need to apologize- I am not going to be an enemy, brother….The Bible says “perfect love throws fear outside”…

How does that analogy with selected samples prove your assertion, Margaret Court?

Didn’t England win the Jules Rimet trophy in 1966? Tell them their performance was low value
