Answer 2

The Indian team was at a disadvantage in that they had lost their early wickets.

Explanation:

• Out of the given options we have chosen the option "in" because it describes that the team was at a disadvantage.
• None of the other given options gives the same sense to the sentence.
• The closest which could be used after "in" is "for". But by using for we need to remove the word "that" which comes after the blank to make the sentence- "The Indian Team was at a disadvantage for they had lost their early wickets". But we cannot edit the sentence because it is fill in the blanks.
• Therefore "in" is correct out of the rest.
