The West Indies are made up of the traditional countries that played cricket years ago. these were all british territories and formed an association called the west indies federation. bermuda however was never really a cricket playing nation nor a part of the west indies federation and as such was not included in the team.

Bermuda is not part of the West Indies, it is located in the Atlantic Ocean and not the Caribean as such, the only real link it has with it is that it too had the same past as the other Islands and is the end tip of the Bermuda Triangle.

No Bermuda is now actually a part of America having been traded during the second world by Churchill for some useless old rust buckets of ships that the crooks in America would not let go until they were allowed to use Bermuda as an off shore banking haven for their drugs money

Bermuda is not a part of West Indies. Bermuda Islands or The Somers Isles is an overseas territory of the United Kingdom in the North Atlantic Ocean. Located off the east coast of the United States, it is situated around 1,100 miles (1770 km) northeast of Miami, Florida and 840 miles (1350 km) south of Halifax, Nova Scotia

Good question. And why does Guyana host West Indies matches when it's in South America?
