If we had had mohan in our team

Question:

In the following question, some part of the sentence may have errors. Find out which part of the sentence has an error and select the appropriate option. If a sentence is free from error, select ‘No Error’.

 

If we had Mohan in our team we (1)/ would win the match (2)/ against your team. (3)/ No error (4)

Options:
A)

1

B)

2

C)

3

D)

4

Solution:

Here the error is in the first part of the sentence. You need past perfect (had had) if what you're trying to say is that you'd have won if Sachin had been in your team in the past, when you played the match (with no particular implication as to whether he's in the team now, or even whether you're thinking about the current team line-up at all). If you use simple past (had), you're imagining a hypothetical current situation where he is in the team (with the implication that if he were, he'd also have been there at the time of the game).

Thus, correct sentence will be- If we had had  Sachin in our team, we would have won the match against your team.
