Dilapidated kraals in country (3,5)
I believe the answer is:
sri lanka
'country' is the definition.
(Sri Lanka is an example)
'dilapidated kraals in' is the wordplay.
'dilapidated' is an anagram indicator.
'kraals'+'in'='kraalsin'
'kraalsin' anagrammed gives 'SRI LANKA'.
(Other definitions for sri lanka that I've seen before include "Present name of Ceylon" , "Asian country, originally the Arabic Serendib or Serendip" , "South Asian republic" , "It used to be called Ceylon" , "Ceylon since 1972" .)
