Q. In a 20 over match, the required run rate to win is 7.2. If the run rate is 6 at the end of the 15th over, the required run rate to win the match is
✅ Correct Answer: (C)
10.8
Explanation: Here , In a 20 over match, the required run rate to win = 7.2
Total runs = 20 × 7.2 = 144
Total runs in 15 overs = 15 × 6 = 90
Runs to be scored in the next 5 overs = 144 – 90 = 54
∴ Required run-rate = 54 ÷ 5 = 10.8
Total runs = 20 × 7.2 = 144
Total runs in 15 overs = 15 × 6 = 90
Runs to be scored in the next 5 overs = 144 – 90 = 54
∴ Required run-rate = 54 ÷ 5 = 10.8
