context is all - if a child throws his food about, then #1 is correct; if a cook drops the ingredients of a meal on the floor, then #2 is correct/
2: In

AmE 'in' is used "I punched him in the stomach." ?
As far as I am aware, "in the stomach" in both places
3: "I have a ghost in my possession I can appear him whenever I want to." correct?
Interesting statement. "i control a ghost and I can make him appear whenever I want."
4: "Which players of Pakistan cricket team do you like.? OR "Which players of Pakistani cricket team do you like.? Which one is correct?
"Which players on the Pakistani cricket team do you like? ..

... and it's even more interesting, because the idea of "possession" works the other way. Until about a hundred years ago many Christians used to account for madness by saying the sufferer was 'possessed by the Devil'; some still do. And people who are intent on something to the exclusion of other thoughts are behaving 'like one possessed'.
