We lost
Our Best (arguably the greatest ever) spinner to suspension
Our no 1 strike bowler (second fastest in the world)
Our no 2 strike bowler
Our best seamer (the backbone of our attack)
Our experienced number 5/2nd spinner
Queensland seamer Noffke who would have played if not for injury.
So I think we were rather more handicapped there , yet even with the tournament held in India we won convincingly on all but 1 of those occasions.
I reckon the reason you are optimistic is that you are Indian (see the link , Indian team , Indian , Indian team , Indian:duh: :P  )

Add to that Darren Lehmann and you'll find India have a MUCH better position than us.
