In the first 10 overs of a cricket game, the run rate was only 2.5. What should be the run rate in the remaining 15 overs to reach the target of 151 runs? Correct Answer 8.4
Given:
Run rate in first 10 overs = 2.5
Formula:
Average = Total runs/Number of overs
Calculation:
runs scored in first 10 overs = 2.5 × 10 = 25
⇒ Remaining runs = 151 – 25 = 126
∴ Required run rate = 126/15 = 8.4
