When the WI team lost to Aussie team that had Lillee, Thommo, Chappels and Marsh, it was their first series against them under Lloyd and the WI team did not have Garner, Baptiste or Marshall. Mike Holding was young and Roberts was inexperienced. When these guys came together, they devastated everyone in their path.

And they lost to a team that had some all time greats like Lillee, Marsh, Chappels and Thommo who were all in their peak.

Aussies on the other hand lost to an english side that was full of nobodys who simply came together and played one good series. The Aussies lost to India, drew a series with India in their homeland - this when Indians are supposed to be poor travellers. Aussies drew series with a West indies that had an aging Walsh, an old Ambrose and only Lara as notable batsman.
