Sachin=Azhar + 76 eq.(1), Azhar + Robin= 94 eq. (2), Dravid= Azhar+76 eq.(3) Dravid = Robin + 26 eq. (4).

Adding eq. (3) and (4). we get

2Dravid = Azhar + Robin + 102 eq. (5). Putting eq. (2) in eq. (5) we get

2Dravid = 94+102 = 196

So. Dravid = 196/2= 98.

Now solving one by one equatin we get. Sachin=98, Robin=72, Azhar=22, Darvid=98.

Adding their scores we get 290 as total score.

    Equations:

     Azar = x runs

     Sachin = x + 76 runs

     X + robin = 94

     Dravid = x + 76 = 26 + robin

     x + 76 = 26 +(94-x)

     that means x = 22;

    so we get, Azar = 22, sachin = 98, robin = 72, dravid = 98,

    Therefore total runs = 290 runs

we have the equations S=A+76----------1

                               A+R=94 -----------2

                              A=D-76----------3    or   D=A+76

                              D=R+26-----------4

from eq 1 and 3 we get        D=S

from eq 3 and 4      we get       R=A+50----------5

but    A+R=94(eq 2)

therefore       A+(A+50)=94    (since  eq   5)

A=22,R=72

D=S=A+76=R+26=98

therefore  D+S+R+A=98+98+72+22=290

sachin=s, azhar=a, robin=r,dravid=d

given: s=76+a

         a+r=94

         a=d-76

          d=r+26

so take equation a=d-76 put " d value as r+26"

then a=r-50 substitute in a+r=94

so r-50+r=94

2r=144

r=72

thus a+r=94, we get a=22

then a=d-76 we get d=98

thus s=98

then total=s+r+d+a=98+72+98+22=290

let azhar score be x.

& robin score be y.

according to question,

score of sachin=x+76

score of dravid =y+26--------(1)

& also score of dravid= x+76---------(2)

since

eqn (1)&(2) is equal

y+26=x+76

=> y-x=50-----------(3)

since given

x+y=94-------------(4)

solving (3) &(4)

x=22, y=72

score of sachin=98

score of dravid=98

score of azhar=22

score of robin=72

total=290

the correct answer cannot be given unless they specify the no of balls or overs the players played... or unless we know the scores of other players of the game... if no other players contributed scores.. and if the other team is all out for a duck then the score will be 290 in that match

let azhar score =x
 robin score =y

x+y= 94             .............................1

dravid score is 76 more then azhar(or azhar score 76 less then dravid)
: x+76

draid score is 26 greater then robin: y+26

hence  x+76= y+26

  x-y = -50  ..............................................2

from eq 1 & 2 we get

x= 22 , y=72

azhar score =22   robin score = 72
dravid score = 22+76= 98

sachin svcore = dravid score = 98

total score =98+98+22+72= 290

S=sachin,a=azhar,r=robin,d=dravid
s=76+a
d=76+a
a+r=94
r=d-26
 =76+a-26
substitute r in a+r=26
a+76+a-26=94
2a+50=94
a=22
Substituin the value of a
we get
 s=98
d=98
r=72

So the total score is 98+98+72+22=290

Mathematically it should be 290. However logically it can be any number over 290. We need to add the following 1) Extras 2) Scores of other batsmen 3) scores of the other inning (remember it is a test match)

given;-
a + 76 = s
a + r = 94
a + 76 = d
r + 26 = d


total score made all player=a + r + s + d
=94 + a + 76 + r + 26 ( given a+r=94 and s=a+76 and d=r+26)
=196 + a + r
=196 + 94
= 290

Azhar+Robin=94;....eq 1
Dravid=Azhar+76;...eq 2
Sachin=Azhar+76;....eq 3
Dravid=Robin+26;...eq 4
Now eq 12 and eq 4 are combined
Azhar+76=Robin+26;
Robin-Azhar=76-26;
or, Robin-Azhar=50;...eq 5
From eq 1 we get,
Azhar=94-Robin;...eq 6
Putting eq 6 in eq 5 we get,
Robin-94+Robin=50;
or,2Robin=50+94=144;
or.Robin=144/2=72;
so,Azhar=94-72=22;
Dravid=76+22=98;
Sachin=98;
So,total score is=98+98+72+22=290;
