HOVE, England: Pakistan’s left-handed opener, Shan Masood, has made history as he became the first player to pass 1,000 first-class runs in the English County Championship this season.
Shan achieved the milestone during his 46 runs knock against Sussex while representing Derbyshire County Cricket Club.
