  • Question

  • Statement:
    Should cricket replace hockey as the national sport of India?
    Argument:
    I. Yes, the performance of the hockey team has been dismal for the last few years
    II. No, cricket is the national sport of Australia and no two countries must have the same national sport.


  • Options
  • A. if only argument I is strong
  • B. if only argument II is strong
  • C. if either argument I or II is strong
  • D. `if neither argument I nor II is strong

  • Correct Answer
  • if only argument I is strong 

    Explanation

    I is strong because performance should definitely be a criterion for "national sport" status. II is irrelevant one fails to see the harm in two nations sharing a national sport. Besides, if every nation decided to have a different national sport, we would run out of sports as there would be just too many countries.
