Outermost electronic configuration of [Ni(CO) 4] complex is 3d8,4s2 and CO is a strong ligand thus electrons get paired up and shows sp3 hybridization.
Outermost electronic configuration of [Ni(CN)4]2−
 complex is 3d8and CN is a strong ligand thus electrons get paired up  but one d orbital is empty and shows dsp2hybridisation.
Outermost electronic configuration of [Ni(Cl)4]2−
 complex is 3d8,4s2and Cl is a weak ligand thus electrons does not paired up and shows sp3hybridisation.
