The total conceding runs till the last match=1200+144= 1344
The wickets taken in the last match= 4
Let the number of wickets taken before the last match be X
Then total wickets taken after the last match= X+4
His average after last match= 1
So
1344/(4+X)=1
1344= X+4
X=1340
So the total number of wickets before the last match is 1340
The wickets taken in the last match= 4
Let the number of wickets taken before the last match be X
Then total wickets taken after the last match= X+4
His average after last match= 1
So
1344/(4+X)=1
1344= X+4
X=1340
So the total number of wickets before the last match is 1340
