- if only Assumption II is implicit
- if either Assumption I or II is implicit
- If nether Assumption I nor II is implicit
Correct Option: A
Assumption I is not implicit as people may like to see this particular match even if other matches are played in near future. Again, when we start in a queue, we hope to get ticket. Hence, Assumption II is implicit.
