Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Solution: The correct modal is "shall".

The sentence gives a real future condition: if it does not rain tomorrow. Since the instruction asks for a definite future plan with the subject "we", "shall" is the most appropriate modal.

Correct sentence: If it does not rain tomorrow, we shall go out for a cricket match.

"Could" would only show possibility or a tentative suggestion. "Couldn't" is negative and contradicts the meaning. "Would" is usually used for unreal or hypothetical conditions, such as "If it rained, we would...".
