Explanation

After a long, hard practice in hot weather, naturally the players would be tired. Flagging and enervated are the only choices that mean “tired.”

Hence flagging, enervated are best fit!

Flagging means languid or weak. Lissome means supple or ductile.

another way to answer this:
look at all the options and find a pair of synonym words. There's only one pair among the choices, which is flagging and enervated.

Hale - strong and healthy. Exactly opposite.

I think the answer choices need to be reconsidered. It should be enervated rather than vigorous
