CRICKET: BILAL Khiljee smashed his second century in the space of a week as Delph hammered Elland by 123 runs in the Drakes Huddersfield League premiership.

The Pakistani all-rounder struck 11 fours and fives sixes in an unbeaten 119 to steer Grant Jones’ side to a daunting 271 for six.

Khiljee then weighed in with three for 36 — Matthew Norvall also bagged three wickets — as Elland were dismissed for 148.

Meanwhile, Phil Lees (75 not out) hit the last ball of the match for four as Delph seconds defeated Thongsbridge (163 for eight) by one wicket.
