Close and right line of thinking, but........

You are still short of total

I guts it could be more complex, if he hits 3 rather than six at end of each over, then you have your answer? 1,650?

 

[knocky1]

1751

 

[knocky1]

For 1750 he has to run 5 from every 6th ball so 35x49+36 from the 50th over.

+3. He can hit a six off the last ball of the innings.

So. 49 overs of 666663 + 1 over of 666666 = 1653

Was thinking of that when they gave the answer I posted above on Sky.

 

[knocky1]

...and if they say he can't run 5 then he can't hit 250 6s either.

Nuts, I was bringing the washing in, went for a piss and thought, I'm 3 short, but too slow..... good question

Nope. 900 is way short.

How come as it is 50 overs 300 balls and the most he can face is 150 assuming he hits 6 off of each ball but if he hit a 5 off the last ball he could score 35 per over facing every ball would give him 49 x 35 + 36 =1751.

Despite all that good result today.

As I predicted at the start
