I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'cricket's crazy fellows?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'crazy fellows?' is the wordplay.
'crazy' becomes 'bats' (I've seen this before).
'fellows?' becomes 'men' (fellow is a kind of man).
'bats'+'men'='BATSMEN'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for batsmen that I've seen is " They defend the wicket".)
