[MARK THE ANSWER AS BRAINLIEST]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Dhoni's Score = X

Saurabh's Score = 2 × Dhoni's Score

⇒ 2x

Total Runs = 7 runs SHORT of century

⇒ 100 - 7

⇒ 93

According to the question :

Saurabh's Score + Dhoni's Score = 93

⇒ x + 2x = 93

⇒ 3x = 93

⇒ x = 93/3 = 31

∴ Dhoni's Score = 31

Saurabh's Score = 2 × 31 = 62
