    Answer – 1653

    Explanation-
    Batsman hits 6 on 1st 5 balls of every over and taks 3 runs on 6th ball to come on strike in next over.

    50*5=250 (First 5 Balls of 50 Over)
    250*6=1500 (On all above call batsman hits 6)
    1500+6=1506 (In 50th Over he can hit 6 on 6th ball)
    1506+49*3=1653 (On rest 49 overs, batsman takes 3 runs)

    1506.

    Explanation:

    Batsman B1 hit 6 sixes in first over.

    From second over onward, batsman B2 keeps changing the strike (by scoring 1 or 3) at very first ball of every over.

    And batsman B1, in order to score highest possible individual score keep hitting continuous 5 sixes.

    Total score of B1 = 36+49*30 = 1506
