Directions for questions 29 and 30 - The batting average (BA) of a test batsman is computed from

runs

scored and innings playedcompleted innings and incomplete innings

(not out) in the following manner:

r1 = number of runs scored in completed innings

n1 = number of completed inningsr2 = number of runs scored in incomplete innings

n2 = number of incomplete innings.

BA = (r1+ r2)/n1

To better assess a batsmans accomplishments, the ICC is considering

two other measures MBA1and MBA2defined as follows:

MBA1= (r1/n1) + (n1/n2) + max[0, (r2/n2) (r1/n1)]

MBA2= (r1+ r2)/(n1+ n2)

29. Based on the information provided which of the following is true?

1. MBA1 BA MBA2

2. BA MBA2MBA13. MBA2 BA MBA2

4. None of these

50. The next time he bats, the innings is incomplete and he scores 45 runs.

2. BA will increase and MBA2will decrease

3. BA will increase and not enough data is available to assess

change in MBA1and MBA2

4. None of these
