?
In the first 10 overs of a cricket game, the run rate was only 3.2. What should be the run rate in the remaining 40 overs to reach the target of 282 runs?
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
A
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{Required run rate}} \cr
& = {\frac{{282 - \left( {3.2 \times 10} \right)}}{{40}}} \cr
& = \frac{{250}}{{40}} \cr
& = 6.25 \cr} $$

LoginRemaining runs = total runs - chased runs = 282-32 = 250 runs
Run rate = total remaining runs/total remaining overs = 250/40= 6.25
