Situations for India’s qualification in the quarterfinal

Thanks to three field goals and one goal from a penalty corner and some very casual defending from Spain, England beat them 4-0 and now sit at the top of the Group D table, making their way to the quarter-finals. India, who are currently in the second position in the group and will remain there even if they lose against Wales, need to win by a margin of 8 goals to get above the English in terms of goal difference. 

If India win by a margin of less than 8 goals, they would still finish second in the group and would have to play a cross-over against a third placed team from Group C which are New Zealand to get to the quarterfinal.
