B Correct answer
Explanation

Sunil Gavaskar holds this unusual record for facing 150+ balls and scoring under 50 runs in ODIs, having scored 36 off 165 balls against England in the 1975 World Cup. This was during an era when batting strike rates were much slower. Miandad, Flower, and Attapattu had higher scoring rates or didn't face as many balls in such low-scoring innings.
