Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The error lies in the second part of the sentence.
The main subject of the sentence is singular, as "the captain" and "his team" are treated as a singular unit, as they are combined with the help of "along". Hence, the verb should be singular in accordance with the first subject.
The correct sentence is, "The captain along with his team is practising very hard for the forthcoming match."
Hence, the correct answer is the second option.
