• D. If one goes by the scores in some of the matches, especially Delhi's games, then it is quite obvious that the pitches prepared are sub-standard and not conducive to a fair contest between bat and ball.

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

The only problem is that the wickets that are on offer for domestic cricket are hardly conducive for batsman.

Answer 2

The incorrect sentence is:

C: "The only problem is that the wickets that are on offer for domestic cricket are hardly conducive for batsman."

The term "batsman" should be pluralized to "batsmen" since it refers to multiple players.

A corrected version could be: "The only problem is that the wickets that are on offer for domestic cricket are hardly conducive for batsmen."

The correct option is (C): The only problem is that the wickets that are on offer for domestic cricket are hardly conducive for batsman.
