Which of the following sports is played on water?
Surfing
Water sports are physical activities carried out on the surface of, or within, a body of water, and they often rely on waves, currents, wind or the buoyancy of the water itself rather than on solid ground.
Surfing is a classic water sport in which the rider stands or balances on a surfboard and glides along the forward, breaking face of a moving wave, most commonly in the sea near a coastline.
Because it needs open water with rolling, breaking waves to generate the ride, surfing simply cannot be performed on dry land.
Badminton is played indoors on a marked court with a net and a shuttlecock, firmly on a hard floor, so it is a land-based racquet sport.
Basketball is likewise contested on a solid court where players dribble and shoot at raised hoops, and cricket is a field game played on a grass ground with a central pitch; both are played on land.
Since only surfing is carried out on the water, the sport played on water is Surfing.
