Solution

There are total three cases.
$(i) : 4$ Bowlers $+ 5$ Batsmen $+ 2$ WK
No. of ways $=^{6} C_{4} \cdot^{7} C_{5} \cdot^{2} C_{2} = 315$

$(i i) : 4$ Bowlers $+ 6$ Batsmen $+ 1$ WK
No. of ways $=^{6} C_{4} \cdot^{7} C_{6} \cdot^{2} C_{1} = 210$

$(i i i) : 5$ Bowlers $+ 5$ Batsmen $+ 1$ WK
No. of ways $=^{6} C_{5} \cdot^{7} C_{5} \cdot^{2} C_{1} = 252$

Total number of ways $= 315 + 210 + 252 = 777$
