India have everything and more
The team of 2007 is very steady.
Factors helping India -
The best indian team going for the World Cup after the 1983 Presidential Cup. India has found good openers in Ganguly and Uthappa, with Sehwag in there too. Yuvraj, Dravid, Dhoni and Tendulkar steady the middle order to form one of the best middle order batting. Lower middle order of Kumble, Harbhajan, Zaheer can hit a few runs too.
As on bowling - Zaheer and Sreesanth/Munaf Patel will be opening and are not as bad. Kumble, Harbhajan and Sachin - Sehwag can bowl many spin overs between them. That leaves one guy extra. He can be employed as a strike bowler - Irfan/Sreesanth or Dinesh Kaarthick as the 11th guy. Irfan can bat as well.
It is a very powerful batting line-up, and make take a beating on their bowling lineup.
Quality Fielders are in plenty - Yuvraj, Uthappa, Sachin, Kaarthick. Fielders like Munaf Patel will have to be hided on the field.
There are all winning chances for India. India will reach the semi-finals for sure.
India have enjoyed a great run in previous world cups as well.
In 1979 we were almost through to semis. In 1983 we won the cup. In 1987 we were in the semis. In 1996 we were in semis (because of indian crowd, match given to Sri Lankans). In 1999 we beat Pakistan (who earlier beat Australia). Then in 2003 we reached the finals.
Somethings which India need to work on to improve for the World Cup 2007 in the Caribbean -
Every Indian Player Has To Think About The Country Not Individual.
Play As A Team
Making of Master Game plan before every match
Play Mind games With Every Team
Good Net Practice Before Every Match
Relaxation Techniques
Good Fielding
Players Should Be Absolutely Fit Before Every Match

Not only in case of cricket, understand the motto of sports and games. It is to develop the better possible relations between individuals, team and countries. It is not the matter of winning as far as the motto concerned.
After the motto comes, these world cups, etc., etc., and that gives u pride. Of course the country may not gained much in terms of direct financial, but you can find lot of funds just only thru advertisements, and other sources.
Forget every other thing & enjoy the spirit. You can never get this fever any where than in sports & games.

So what do you expect India to get after winning the World Cup?
A rise in the per-capita income?
Come on now....be realistic...its a sport enjoy it! Be happy for the players and your country if India wins! Its an achievement after all don't you agree?

Name and fame is not a thing which can be bought by money and as such it has got huge advantage. Further, when the players and Cricket Board earns money, Government also earn revenue by way of taxes.
