Answer
A

B

D

Explanation

“Games” is plural, so the pronoun referring to the games should also be plural: “After counting them.” The sentence already correctly uses “theirs” to show that the games belong to Rahul and Ori, and “between them” is the correct object pronoun. Choice B makes these corrections and keeps the rest of the sentence grammatical.
