Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. A-3, B-2, C-1, D-4.

In Water Polo, the Center Forward (3) acts as the primary striker near the 2m line. To counter them, the Center Back (1) plays a defensive role to block passes and shots. The Driver (2) is an agile player who sprints toward the goal to create scoring opportunities. Dead-time (4) refers to the specific interval between a referee's whistle for a foul and the actual restart of play, during which the game clock continues to run but active play is paused.
