The correct option is D
All of these

Given,

Runs scored by Shekhar in 6 overs = 96
Runs scored by Nitish in 6 overs = 102
Run rate = $\frac{T o t a l n u m b e r o f r u n s s c o r e d}{T o t a l n u m b e r o f o v e r s p l a y e d}$
Shekhar's run rate = $\frac{96}{6} = 16$ , runs per over
Nitish's run rate = $\frac{102}{6} = 17$ , runs per over
Clearly, 16 < 17
Hence, Nitish's run rate is greater than that of Shekhar.
