Nerves. India, unfortunately is known to lose when it matters the most - finals. Now with players like Karthik, Dhoni, Dravid who perform well under pressure, they may win if they reach the finals

Though Saurav Ganguly won the toss, strangly he asked Australia to bat first. Indian opening bowlers were wayward in their opening spell. Australian opening batsmen took full advantage of the wayward bowling by the opening bowlers and also lively wanderers pitch and posted century partnership.
This helped Australia to put up a mamoth score, which India could not achieve

Reason:
Just in case you were still wondering as to why India lost the final of
the
2003 world cup after playing so well in the league games, probably here
lies the answer.....
The teams that qualified for the super six stage...
India ,Sri Lanka,Australia, New Zealand ,Kenya,Zimabawe .
Note there are two teams each from the continents of Asia,Australasia &
Africa resp .
The teams that have the last alphabet "a" in their names qualified for
the
semifinals viz.
Indi'a' , Australi'a' , Keny'a' & Sri Lank'a'.
The teams that have alphabets "ia" at the last of their name qualified
for
the Final i.e
Ind "ia" & Austral"ia ".
Now,
Kisne World Cup ''lia'' - Austra"lia"
Kisne World Cup "dia" - In"dia"

Because of following reasons:
1. Wrong decision by Ganguly to choose to field after winning the toss. He himself admitted regretting about it. In this high pressure match its always difficult to chase.. He knew it but still did not want to give the aussies oppty to control the game.
2. Indians chocked. Superstars did not deliver..
3. Destiny.. Couple of unfavorable decisions by umpires..
