The average run rate of a cricket team during the first 25 overs is 5 . What should be the asking rate per over for the next 25 overs, if it has to chase a target of 350 runs in total?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
Total runs scored in 25 overs = 25 × 5 = 125
Remaining run = 350 - 125 = 225
Run rate/over = \(\frac{225}{25}\) = 9
