Batsman M faced equal number of balls in first 11 matches he played in the tournament and last 11 matches he played in the tournament. If his strike rate in first 11 matches and last 11 matches of the tournament are 83 and 71 respectively, what is the total number of balls faced by him in the tournament?

  • 1800
  • 1500
  • 1700
  • 1600
  • 1400
  • Explanation:

    Let the number of balls faced by him in first 11 matches = x

    Total runs scored in first 11 matches = 83x/100

    Total runs scored in last 11 matches = 71x/100

    According to question,

    83x/100+71x/100 = 22×56

    154x/100 = 22×56

    x = 800

    ∴ Total number of balls faced by him in the tournament = 800+800 = 1600
