Sourav has done an excellent job of balancing his captaincy with his personal game. He looks like he is enjoying being captain. And effectively, he has lightened the burden on Sachin Tendulkar.
The number one ranked team is playing the number 10 ranked team. That's the reality.
The reality is we are still ranked 10th and we are playing a team ranked second in the world who are playing at the top of their game and are at home.
