Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 3 : 6.25

Given:

The run rate in the first 10 overs = 3.2 

Formula used:

Run rate = Number of runs scored per over

Calculation:

Run scored in the first 10 overs = 3.2 × 10 = 32 

The target of the runs to be scored in 50 overs = 282 runs  

⇒ The remaining runs to be scored in 40 overs = 282 - 32 = 250

⇒ Run rate of the 40 overs = 250/40 = 6.25 

∴ The required run rate = 6.25
