Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Statement: When I no longer playing cricket or if I feel I am blocking a youngster's place, then only I will quit.
Conclusion I: Right now country 'Z' does not have any promising youngster.
Analysis: The original statement only states conditions under which the captain will quit; it does not assert that no promising youngsters currently exist. Therefore this conclusion is not supported by the statement.
Conclusion II: One who enjoys the game of cricket, has the right to be captain of the country's cricket team.
Analysis: The statement does not make any general claim about rights to captaincy based on enjoyment of the game. It only gives personal conditions for the captain to quit, so this conclusion is also unsupported.
Conclusion: Neither conclusion I nor II follows.
