Boult bagged 3-37 to help restrict Sri Lanka to 171 before New Zealand made short work of the chase to snap a run of four straight defeats, finishing their pool stage campaign with 10 points from nine games.
"I can't speak on what they're thinking but from our point of view to play the World Cup in India and come up against the hosts, a team that's red hot playing good cricket at a great ground - you couldn't script it any better," Boult said.
"Excited if that happens, I feel like we've done all we can from our point of view and we'll wait and see what happens."
"But history suggests it's a good wicket," Boult said.
Doesn't get any bigger than taking on India in front of 1.5 billion people.
