The correct answer is "gets."

 Key Points

  • The first part of the sentence is in the present tense, so to maintain uniformity, we have to write the V1 form of the verb "get."
  • Structure for Simple Present Tense: Subject + V1 (s/es) + Object
    • Example: She plays with me.
  • So, the correct verb form to use is "gets."
  • The correct answer "gets" indicates that Meenakshi currently has the ability to sweep the ball well when faced with an off-spin delivery.
  • The correct answer is Option 4.
     

Correct sentence: Meenakshi sweeps the ball excellently when she gets an off - spin delivery.

 Additional Information
  • "Will get" implies a future action, which is not appropriate in this context.
  • "Has got" is incorrect because the past participle "got" is unnecessary in this sentence.
  • "Got" is past tense and does not match the present tense of the sentence.
