Funny Cricket Team

The Indian cricket team is currently doing very well against England [ India tour of Ireland , England & Scotland , Aug2007] . The English are looking like amateurs.
One funny aspect if this is that though the Indians can play professionally and win this kind of series ( tests or ODIs ) at home & abroad , the same team behaves unprofessionally during World Cups. What happens to them during World Cups ?

One reason has become obvious :
India tends to become defensive after having taken a marginal lead and plays safe to desperately hold on to that lead, instead of playing aggressively to win.
