Bowled at cricketer (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bat

'cricketer' is the definition.
(batsman)

'bowled at' is the wordplay.
'bowled' becomes 'b' (cricket abbreviation).
'b'+'at'='BAT'

(Other definitions for bat that I've seen before include "Nocturnal flier" , "Night-flyer" , "Nocturnal mouselike mammal" , "Small flying mammal - like 11 Across" , "Club used in cricket" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
