The correct indirect speech is: "She said that she was going to the market." This is because when the reporting verb "said" is in the past tense, the tense of the reported speech is shifted back by one step, so "am going" becomes "was going". The quotation marks are removed and the word "that" is added to connect the two parts of the sentence.
Choose the correct indirect speech for the following sentence: She said, 'I am going to the market.
