How to calculate batting strike rate in cricket

Strike Rate is the total number of runs a batsman will score if he faces 100 deliveries, at the current rate.
It is calculated by the runs scored by batsman divided by the number of balls he faced multiplied by 100.

i.e. Strike rate =  ( Runs scored / No.of balls faced ) * 100

Example :
Sachin Tendulkar scored 93 runs in 89 balls
Strike rate = ( 93 / 89 ) * 100 = 104.49
Strike rate is 104.49

  7. Is there a minimum number of balls faced before a strike rate is recorded, eg if only 4 balls are faced but 8 runs are scored, not a bad run rate, but should it be recorded.
