Bowl in field trapping last of batsmen (5)
I believe the answer is:
arena
'bowl' is the definition.
('arena' can be a synonym of 'bowl')
'field trapping last of batsmen' is the wordplay.
'field' becomes 'area' ('area' can be a synonym of 'field'**).
'trapping' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'last of' suggests the final letters.
The final letter of 'batsmen' is 'n'.
'area' enclosing 'n' is 'ARENA'.
'in' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for arena that I've seen before include "Wembley, for example" , "Sports or entertainment venue" , "Scene of gladiatorial contest, perhaps" , "Performance space" , "Place of combat" .)
