it has to be noted that a not out performance (in cricket) will not reduce the average.
Thus a current average of 36.5 from 10 innings (batsman dismissed) will have totalled 365 runs with the addition of 35 runs in two not out innings the batting average will increase to 40. Total runs/number of times dismissed.
If out once 40x(10+1)–365=75 runs required
If out twice 40x(10+2)-365=117 runs required
