    Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error. If there is no error, select 'No error'.

    for his cricket training centre. 
    A no sooner did he finish Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B no sooner than he finished Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C no sooner than he did finished Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D no sooner had he finish Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    In sentences using "No sooner... than," the correct structure is "did + base form of the verb." The base form of the verb "finish" should be used after "did." Therefore, "did he finish" is correct, not "did he finished."
