When hybridisation involving d-orbitals ...

When hybridisation involving d-orbitals are considered then all the five d-orbitals are not degenerate, rather `d_(x^(2)-y^(2)),d_(s^(2)) and d_(xy),d_(zx)` form two different sets of orbitals and orbitals of appropriate set is involved in the hybridisation.
Which of the following orbitals can not undergo hybridisation amongst themselves.
