Question 88

In the first 36 overs of a cricket match, the run rate was 4.3 runs/over. Calculate the required run rate in the remaining 14 overs to reach the target of 271 runs?

Solution

Run rate in 36 overs = 4.3 runs/over

=> Runs scored in 36 overs = $$36 \times 4.3 = 154.8$$

Runs needed to score in 14 overs = 271 - 154.8 = 116.2

=> Run rate required = $$\frac{116.2}{14} = 8.3$$

=> Ans - (C)
