Statement 1) 7 of the batters bat right handed but do not bat left handed.
This will give us the total batters who are left handed only plus those who are both. i.e. 19 - 7 = 12.
Sufficient!!!
Statement 2) 4 of the batters bat both right handed and left handed.
This just gives the overlap figure but no information about the left handed only. Not Sufficient!!!
