This same question keeps popping up every few hours!!
It is basic:
India have a great batting line up (even some good squad batsmen).
India have a rubbish bowling attack, without any truely world class bowlers (Patel & Singh are good, but not great).
When India bowls badly, it puts too much pressure on their batsmen to do something extra-ordinary. To win cricket games, you need everyone to back each other up. If one department fails, another will cover.
Look at they way Australia won the DLF cup. When the top order suffered, middle order batsmen covered. When the bowlers struggled, the batsmen step up. When the batsmen struggle, the bowlers step up. This is what makes a champion team.
Before anyone asks again: INDIA WILL NOT WIN THE WORLD CUP - their bowling attack just isn't good enough.

y do u think india should have won? it was very obvious that thery wont win...the reason were even more obvious....first reason is that they dont have the adequate bowling attack....balaji zaheer or pathan make a better combination than what india played with...moreover...captaincy with dravid doesn seem 2 b perfect...hes not as good as the great ganguly...plus the bating ordr is bing shuffled one time too many...and ofcorse the media and the hype created by them puts phenomenol pressure on best, good and not so good players....over rating players also lead 2 what happened...plz dont expect dhoni 2 win u matches all the time...he has some real serious problems in batting...i am not kidding...no doubt hes damn talented...but hes a 27-30 runs player..and his average of 47 will soon dip to that mark...moreover, when the indian media hilites pathan as one of the best all rounders in the game...how on earth cant he even find himself a place in the side???/ its all ridicolous!!!! now pla dont post questions like...can india win the champions trophy?

Mainly the first two matches of India where India lost due to whether conditions, these two matches demoralised the team. And also their batting let them really down.

India lost the DLF cup because the batsmen did not play with dedication, application, self-restraint and to their potential.

i think tht they did not arrange the players properly . the starting order was not so gud and the middle order couldnt nicely support the fall of wickets and they mostly gave youngsters a major chance without including experienced players like irfan pathan , anil kumble.

wat everyone is talkin about lack of good bowlin-i believ they did a pretty job in the Bowlin department after a long time, Agarkar,Munaf were really good,
thro'out the series Battin never was gr8, no one performed or played to everyone's Expectations, Dravid surprisingly was not in form, Viru has to blame himself, Dhoni, yuvi, no one did a job tat was enough to Save India, then how is tat they cud have thought of winnin the formidables, Battin did not fire- this is my opinion...

Lack of good bowlers,and consistency in their bating,and too much experimentation with players in the bating line up.
