  Direction: Read the given passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.

  It was clear that to climb Annapurna the right men had to be sufficiently high up on the mountain to make their attempt on the peak while still fresh and strong. To ensure that, a chain of high camps must be established and the greater part of the work done by the Sherpas, so that the mountaineers would not tire themselves before they were in a position to attack the peak. Like all other expeditions to the Himalayas, the Frenchmen were to realize the value of the hard mountain people, without whom they would soon find themselves too helpless to achieve their goal.

  Arrange P, Q, R and S between A and B to give the correct sequence of the report given below.

  A:  Kuldeep Yadav strode into the pantheon of cricketing heroes with a definitive hat trick as India prevailed over Australia by 50 runs at the Eden Gardens here on Thursday evening.

  P:  Opting to bat, India scored 252 in 50 overs. With just 18 minutes lost due to rain interruption midway in the action, the match went full length before India got Australia all out at 202 with 6.5 overs to spare.

  Q: This was the first time that an Indian spinner secured a hat-trick in One-Day Internationals; previously two pacers, Chetan Sharma and Kapil Dev, had realized this feat. Kapil had performed his hat-trick at this very venue.

  R: Kuldeep, the latest in a long line of Indian spinners, produced the match-winning spell in the 33rd over removing Mathew Wade, Ashton Agar and Pat Cummins off successive deliveries. As Kuldeep emerged the toast of the town, India coasted to its eighth successive ODI win.

  S: Leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal started the process of demolition picking up the wickets of Travis Head and the marauding Glenn Maxwell before Kuldeep pulled out his bag of tricks.

  B: This made it a memorable evening for the two young spinners, who were playing their fourth match together in national colours. Kuldeep, who plays with local IPL side Kolkata Knight Riders, utilised his understanding of the Eden wicket to get his scalps in different fashion. Wade was bowled, Agar trapped leg-before and Cummins caught behind to make it a heady blend for Kuldeep.
