128

205

195

Correct Answer:

205

Explanation:

Innings      Average       Total Runs

   50     ×       60       =      3000

   48     ×       58       =      2784    ←  excluding two innings

Runs of two innings = 216

Difference of two innings = 194

Let, lowest score = x

Highest score = 194 + x 

2x + 194 = 216

x = 11

Highest score = 194+ 11 = 205
