The 2020–21 Super50 Cup was the 47th edition of the Super50 Cup, the domestic limited-overs cricket competition for the countries of the Cricket West Indies (CWI). The tournament took place in February 2021 in Antigua and Barbuda. Six teams competed in the tournament – Barbados, Guyana, Jamaica, the Leeward Islands, Trinidad and Tobago, and the Windward Islands. The West Indies Emerging Team won the previous edition of the competition.
On 15 June 2020, CWI held a players' draft for the 2020–21 tournament. The draft took place across two rounds, with each team signing a minimum of fifteen players. In December 2020, Cricket West Indies confirmed that the United States, Canada, Combined Campuses and Colleges and the West Indies Emerging Team would not be taking part in the tournament. On 25 January 2021, CWI announced the schedule for the tournament, with all the squads confirmed two days later.
Following the conclusion of the group stage, Guyana, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago and the Windward Islands had all qualified for the semi-finals, with Barbados and the Leeward Islands facing each other in the fifth-place play-off match. In the first semi-final, Trinidad and Tobago beat Jamaica by six wickets to advance to the final. The second semi-final saw Guyana beat the Windward Islands by 95 runs to join Trinidad and Tobago in the final. Trinidad and Tobago won the tournament, beating Guyana by 152 runs in the final.
