D Correct answer
Explanation

Red is the traditional color of cricket balls, used in Test cricket and most first-class matches since the sport's inception. Red balls are used because they maintain their color and visibility well over long playing periods. White balls were introduced specifically for limited-overs cricket to improve visibility under floodlights and on television.
