    Solution

    ATQ;
    Let the highest and lowest runs scored by David Warner be тАШxтАЩ and тАШyтАЩ respectively.
    Total runs scored by him in 140 innings = 140 ├Ч 82 = 11480
    Runs scored by him in 138 innings = (82 - 3) ├Ч 138 = 79 ├Ч 138 = 10962
    So, x + y = 11480 тАУ 10962 = 518
    And, x тАУ y = 210
    So, x = (518 + 210)/2 = 364
