India has lost to Pakistan and Sri Lanka and has one game remaining against Afghanistan on September 8.

India's hope is now relying on the results of Pakistan's matches.

Indian fans would want Afghanistan to beat Pakistan on Wednesday, then India to beat Afghanistan on Thursday and then they would be praying for Sri Lanka's win over Pakistan on Friday.
