Solution

The correct option is B 194
Total runs scored by Sachin in ICC World cup = 117+ 99+ 78+ 156+ 45 = 495
Maximum runs scored in the previous World Cup = 688.

Runs he should score to break the previous recored = 688 +1 = 689.

Runs required in ICC world cup = 689 - 495 = 194

Hence, 194 more runs are needed to break the previous world cup record.
