In the first 10 overs of a cricket game, the run rate was only 3.2. The run rate in the remaining 40 overs to reach the target of 282 runs is?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 6.25

Target = 282 runs

Runs upto 10 overs = 3.2 × 10 = 32 runs

Required runs = 282 - 32 = 250

Required run rate = 250/40 = 6.25
