Bowls out over half of county side (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

yorks

'bowls out' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.

(Other definitions for yorks that I've seen before include "County (abbreviation)" , "Where you may get pudding" , "White rose county (abbr.)" , "Ilkley's county" , "White rose county (abbrev.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
