With Pakistan's win in the last match of Group A, the standings in that group are clear: Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Australia and New Zealand, in that order. Only one meaningful match remains in Group B, between India and West Indies in Chennai. Here's a look at the quarter-final line-ups depending on who wins that game.
Scenario 1: If India beat West Indies
India will take second place, behind South Africa, on nine points, while England will be third and West Indies fourth. West Indies will finish with the same points as Bangladesh, but they are so far ahead on net run-rate that Bangladesh cannot catch up even if West Indies lose by a huge margin. The quarter-finals:
Pakistan v West Indies - Mirpur
Australia v India - Ahmedabad (March 24)
New Zealand v South Africa - Mirpur
Sri Lanka v England - Colombo (March 26)
Scenario 2: If West Indies beat India
In this case West Indies will jump to second place, behind South Africa, pushing India and England to third and fourth place. India will retain third place unless they lose very badly (for example, if they get bowled out for 139 or fewer chasing 300). The quarter-finals:
New Zealand v South Africa
Sri Lanka v India - Ahmedabad (March 24)
Australia v West Indies
Pakistan v England
Scenario 3: if the points are shared
If both teams get a point each, India will take second spot with eight points, behind South Africa's ten. West Indies and England will be on seven points each, but West Indies have the better run-rate, and it'll stay that way if the points are shared. The quarter-finals:
Pakistan v England - Mirpur
Australia v India - Ahmedabad (March 24)
New Zealand v South Africa - Mirpur
Sri Lanka v West Indies - Colombo (March 26)
In each case, the winners of the first two quarters listed above will play in one semi-final, while the winners of the last two quarters will play in the other, with India playing in Mohali if they make it, and Sri Lanka playing in Colombo.
India can finish 4th if they lose badly to Windies "India will retain third place unless they lose very badly (for example, if they get bowled out for 139 or fewer chasing 300)"
I would prefer to face Pakistan (over Sri Lanka or Australia). Time to include Sreesanth, retain Chawla, and promote Pathan to opener for this match. May we get clobbered today.

I know...the moment I saw the possibilities I have been thinking this....damn it...!!!!
Re: India Vs West Indies 20th March .....
^West Indies should cream them then !
Re: India Vs West Indies 20th March .....
I am 90% sure India might lose this one....and hopefully I can change my shift to watch the QF
Re: India Vs West Indies 20th March .....
I dont know if we want to win. If we win then we play Australia in QF, but if we lose we play srilanka in QF.
Australia cannot lose two times in a row.

India will never lose on purpose! Aussies lost to India recently in a warm up game!

Even that sounds like a bad idea. Today is Holi, they cant do this to their people :/
Re: India Vs West Indies 20th March …
Well…I am very happy to hear that… 
Re: India Vs West Indies 20th March .....
From a pragmatic point of view,India should win this one,rather than losing to W.I intentionally.Aus is not a string enough to defeat India.S.L ,I do not want to take on them at this moment.
Re: India Vs West Indies 20th March …
Would India like to win today to face Australia in Quarter final!? 
Re: India Vs West Indies 20th March .....
^Yes,not an issue.
