Whats going wrong with the Indian batting ???

On the second day of the forth test match.. After just half an hour, India is already looking down the barrel at 33/5.

Batsmen
Runs Balls 4's 6's
G. Gambhir lbw Jason Gillespie 3 8 0 0
V. Sehwag b Glenn Mcgrath 8 11 1 0
R. Dravid Not Out 14 37 3 0
Sachin Tendulkar c Adam Gilchrist b Jason Gillespie 5 35 0 0
VVS. Laxman c Adam Gilchrist b Jason Gillespie 1 10 0 0
Md. Kaif lbw Jason Gillespie 2 3 0 0

Overs : 17.2 Extras : 0 ( NB-0 , WB-0, LB-0 , Byes-0 ,Penalty-0 )
RR : 1.9
Score : 33/5
FOW :1-11(V. Sehwag 2.6), 2-11(G. Gambhir3.1), 3-29(Sachin Tendulkar 13.3), 4-31(VVS. Laxman 15.5), 5-33(Md. Kaif 17.2),
Rest of Team : Dinesh Karthik, H. Singh , A. Kumble , M. Kartik , Z. Khan ,

Thats how the score card reads right now.
I am really curious to know how suddenly after a successful tour of Pakistan, the whole Indian team has suffered such a catastrophic loss of form ???
I still beleive that almost all the batsmen in the Indian top order are good enough to walk into any team in the world, classy players all of them.. Then whats wrong? why is it proving difficult to post a score of 200 in a consistently ?
