Analogy: Cricket is to Pitch as Wrestling is to ____. Select the standard venue/surface associated with the sport, mirroring the first pair.

Introduction / Context:
Sport–venue analogies pair a sport with its standard playing surface or location. Cricket is played on a pitch. We must choose the corresponding venue for wrestling.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Cricket → pitch.
• Wrestling → typical venue/area.
• Options include surfaces and non-surface terms.

Concept / Approach:
Wrestling is conducted in a ring/mat situated within an arena. Among the choices, “arena” best captures the standard place/setting for wrestling events. “Rink” is for skating/hockey; “ground” is generic open field; “wrestler” is a person.

Step-by-Step Solution:
Maintain pattern: sport ↔ venue.Pick “arena” to reflect the recognized setting for wrestling competitions.

Verification / Alternative check:
Professional/amateur wrestling takes place on a mat in an arena; the venue-level term is appropriate, akin to “pitch” for cricket.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Rink: skating sports. Ground: too generic and misaligned. Wrestler: participant, not a venue.

Common Pitfalls:
Choosing “ground” due to generality; analogy expects the specific environment term commonly paired with the sport.

Final Answer:
Arena.
