Solution

The correct option is B 200
The team has scored 150 runs in 30 overs. So, they have scored $150 \div 30 = 5$ runs per over on average.

If they maintain this run rate per over, then on the next 10 overs they will score $10 \times 5 = 50$ runs.

Hence, at the end of 40 overs their score will be $150 + 50 = 200$ runs.
