Correct Answer: It is hoped that the match against Australia shall be won by us.


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

Explanation: Passive voice is the voice in which the object experiences an action rather than the person who performs the action. Hence, the object in the active sentence becomes the subject in the passive voice.

The general structure of the passive sentence is: "Object + auxiliary verb + past participle form of the main verb + by followed by the agent of the action."

So, the correct sentence would be: "It is hoped that the match against Australia will be won by us."
