How we can select the value of an <option> in <select> by using 'text' in
<option value="123">text<option>
Here is the xpath,by using this i'm able to check that there is a option in <select> witch contains 'text'
string xpath = "//*[contains(@name, 'selectname')]/option[contains(translate(text(), " + "'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ', 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'), 'text')]";

Accepted Answer
var doc = new HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument();
HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlNode.ElementsFlags.Remove("option");
doc.LoadHtml(html);
var values = doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//select[@name='selectname']/option")
.Where(o => o.InnerText=="text")
.Select(o => o.Attributes["value"].Value)
.ToList();
