@poorni_p,

You could set the values directly in the input

  <fieldset submitButton="false">
    <input type="multiselect" token="team_name">
      <label>Teams</label>
      <choice value="Mark pet,george g">Team A</choice>
      <choice value="breande k , silk">Team B</choice>
      <choice value="Team C">Team C</choice>
    </input>
  </fieldset>

For some reasons if this doesnt work for you, you could use the change event as well

    <input type="multiselect" token="team_name">
      <label>Teams</label>
      <choice value="Mark pet,george g">Team A</choice>
      <choice value="breande k , silk">Team B</choice>
      <choice value="Team C">Team C</choice>
      <change>
        <condition label="Team A">
          <set token="your token name">your token value</set>
        </condition>
        .....other conditions....
      </change>
    </input>
