A) 64
B) 72
C) 80
D) 96
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Let the number, of wickets taken till the last match be n. |
\[\therefore \]Total runs at the rate 24.85 runs per wicket = 24.85 n |
Total runs after the current match = 24.85n + 52 |
Total number of wickets after the current match = n + 5 |
Bowling average after the current match |
\[=\frac{24.85\,\,n+52}{n+5}=24.85-0.85\] |
\[\therefore \] \[\frac{24.85\,\,n+52}{n+5}=24\] |
\[\Rightarrow \] \[24.85\,\,n+52=24n+120\] |
\[\Rightarrow \] \[0.85n=120-52\]\[\therefore \]\[n=\frac{68}{0.85}=80\] |
