India plays so well, Why do we always lose in the finals?

Question

Disregarding the CB Series in Australia, India usually ends up losing the finals. We thrash teams with large margins and get into the finals. Why is it that we always end up losing the finals? After the CB Series we really haven't had a big victory. What can India work on to overcome this problem?

I personally think it's due to over confidence.

Your views please.

Answer 1

They obviously can't handle pressure & as you said, overconfidence is a big factor.

Edit: OZ? above, at least if he does deal with our batsman like he did yours, we won't be calling him crook.He is just a damned good bowler, too good for your batsmen.Accept it

Answer 2

Yes, u are right. It is overconfidence.  Before a match against a team they have just beaten, they get too overconfidence. And when they lose early wickets, pressure gets to them and from there they cannot recover. Its a problem Indian teams have had in the past against other teams. Like they say in my family - jeeta hua match bhi haar jate hai!!
