Detailed Solution & Explanation

In statistical analysis of matches (such as cricket or other sports datasets), the least score (Option A), highest score (Option B), and median score (Option D) are well-defined quantitative terms that can be computed directly from the dataset. However, 'best score' (Option C) is a qualitative and subjective term, as the definition of 'best' can vary (e.g., highest strike rate, most consistent, highest runs, etc.) and is not a standard mathematical statistics metric. Therefore, the best score cannot be calculated using standard formulas alone. Hence, **Option C** is the correct answer.

Exam Strategy Tip

Do not just memorize formulas; ICAI loves asking about the mathematical properties (e.g., 'sum of deviations from the AM is always zero'). You can usually eliminate 2 options just by knowing the properties.
