• A. An ace up his sleeve
• B. A little bird in his wings

Answer 1

The correct option is A An ace up his sleeve

From the given options, 'an ace up his sleeve' means 'a plan kept secret until it becomes necessary to use it', and can be used to refer to sportsmen, who usually have a hidden plan while the sport is happening. Hence option A is correct. Options B, C and D are not idioms, nor do they refer to the sentence. Hence options B, C and D are incorrect.
