- As the reported speech is in "Assertive sentence" we need to make changes according to this.
- There will be a change in the reporting verb and it will be changed into "Told".
- "That" will be used at the place of the "inverted comma".
- "These" will be changed into "Those".
- "Will" should be changed into "Would".
As all the rules are followed by the chosen option it will be correct.
