    Understanding the Players' Performance
    - The four players are Guptill, Anderson, Maxwell, and Warner.
    - Each player scored at least 1 six, 1 four, and 1 single.
    - The ratios of sixes are: Guptill : Anderson = 2 : 3 and Maxwell : Warner = 2 : 3.
    - Total sixes hit = 15.
    Calculating Sixes and Fours
    - Guptill and Anderson: Let Guptill hit 2x sixes and Anderson 3x sixes.
    - Thus, 2x + 3x = 15 → 5x = 15 → x = 3.
    - Guptill hits 6 sixes and Anderson hits 9 sixes.
    - For Maxwell and Warner, let Maxwell hit 2y sixes and Warner 3y sixes.
    - Hence, 2y + 3y = 15 → 5y = 15 → y = 3.
    - Maxwell hits 6 sixes and Warner hits 9 sixes.
    Fours and Singles Analysis
    - Guptill hit three more fours than Anderson. Let Anderson hit a fours, then Guptill hits a + 3 fours.
    - Maxwell hit three more fours than Warner. Let Warner hit b fours, then Maxwell hits b + 3 fours.
    - The number of singles for Guptill is twice the number of fours he hits.
    Calculating Warner’s Dots and Strike Rates
    - Warner had the highest dots equal to half his runs + 9 more than Anderson.
    - Warner: 46 runs; thus, dots = 23.
    - Anderson's dots = 23 - 9 = 14.
    - Maxwell scored 50 off 30 balls, half were dots, meaning 15 dots.
    Strike Rate Calculation
    - Guptill's total balls = singles + fours + sixes + dots.
    - To find the maximum strike rate, calculate runs/balls * 100 for each player.
    - For Maxwell: 50 runs off 30 balls → Strike Rate = (50/30) * 100 = 166.67 (rounded to 167).
    Conclusion
    - The highest strike rate achieved by any batsman in this match is 167.
