Cricket, perhaps from popular camp (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

insect

'cricket perhaps' is the definition.
(cricket is an example)

'popular camp' is the wordplay.
'popular' becomes 'in' ('in' can mean trendy).
'camp' becomes 'sect' (sect is a kind of camp).
'in'+'sect'='INSECT'

'from' is the link.

(Other definitions for insect that I've seen before include "Bee or beetle, for example" , "Creepy-crawly" , "Small arthropod creature" , "Invertebrate, often winged" , "Ladybird, for example" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
