London, April 22 (AFP\/APP): Pakistan opener Shan Masood on Friday hit a second successive double century in the English county championship to take his aggregate to 608 runs in four innings.<\/p>\n

The 32-year-old was out for 219, having hit 24 fours and a six as Derbyshire racked up 401 runs in the day to reach 437 for four and lead by 224 in their game against Leicestershire.<\/p>\n

Masood’s magnificent innings followed his 239 in last week’s draw against Sussex.<\/p>\n

Left-arm spinner Callum Parkinson finally claimed Masood’s wicket on Friday, bowling him with a ball that turned sharply from outside the left-hander’s off stump.<\/p>\n

“If we are to do well, we need to make the big hundreds,” said Masood.
\n“To get two double hundreds is pleasing. Making it big is always something we talk about.”<\/p>\n

Masood turned for the pavilion when he was out but could leave the field only after every Leicestershire player, led by Parkinson, had offered a handshake of congratulation on a superb exhibition of high-class batting.<\/p>\n

Fellow Pakistan star Shaheen Shah Afridi helped steer Middlesex closer to victory over Glamorgan on his debut.<\/p>\n

Afridi dismissed Australian Test player Marnus Labuschagne for the second time in Cardiff to take his fourth wicket of the match.<\/p>\n

He also hit a career best 29 as Middlesex made 336 in reply to Glamorgan’s 122 all out.<\/p>\n

At stumps, the Welsh county were 104-6 in their second innings, still 110 runs behind.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
