Verified by Toppr

When the subject and the object of the verb is the same person or thing, we use a reflexive pronoun.
In the given sentence the subject and object is plural.
'Ourselves' is the reflexive pronoun for the plural first person. Thus option B is the correct answer.
The reflexive pronoun for singular third person is 'himself','herself' or 'itself' according to the gender of the noun. Thus options C and D are incorrect.
The reflexive pronoun for singular first person 'I' is 'myself'. Thus option A is incorrect.
