Solution

The scenario that demonstrates acceleration is "When a car speeds up or slows down".

Acceleration is a change in velocity, which can be a change in speed or direction. In this case, the car is changing its speed, either increasing (speeding up) or decreasing (slowing down), which is a clear example of acceleration.

The other scenarios do not demonstrate acceleration. A stationary soccer ball is not changing its velocity, a cricket wicket keeper standing still is not changing velocity, and a bowling ball rolling at a constant speed is not changing its velocity either.
