Answer: C. Only conclusion I follows

Answer: (C) Only conclusion I follows

The wickets that are balls can never be bats, so some wickets are not bats (I follows). Wickets outside the balls may overlap with bats, so “No wicket is a bat” is not certain (II does not follow).

Convention (as in SSC papers): the statements are taken as true even if they seem odd, every group named in a statement is assumed to have at least one member, and a conclusion follows only if it is true in every possible Venn diagram of the statements.
