Detailed Solution

1)      In the first sentence, the verb “coming” has not changed its tense in the indirect speech and there is also not the proper use of conjunction as well. Therefore, this option is incorrect.
2)      In the second sentence, there is also not the proper use of conjunction as well and the main subject should come before the verb in indirect speech which is not there. Therefore, this option is incorrect.
3)      In the third sentence, fulfils all the rules of indirect speech and the tense of the verb is also changed with the proper use of conjunction as well. Therefore, this option is correct.
