Momentum — practice question

A cricket ball with mass $0.15\,\text{kg}$ travels at $30\,\text{m s}^{-1}$. In the diagram, a batsman is shown keeping a bat stationary when the ball strikes it and rebounds in the opposite direction at the same speed. The ball remains in contact with the bat for $1.0 \times 10^{-3}\,\text{s}$. The table gives the ball’s change in momentum and the size of the force acting on the ball. Which row is correct?
