Fashionable group taking in start of county cricket, say? (6)
I believe the answer is:
insect
'cricket say?' is the definition.
(cricket is an example)
'fashionable group taking in start of county' is the wordplay.
'fashionable' becomes 'in' (in can mean fashionable or trendy).
'group' becomes 'set' (both can mean a collection).
'taking in' is an insertion indicator.
'start of' suggests taking the first letters.
The first letter of 'county' is 'c'.
'set' going around 'c' is 'sect'.
'in'+'sect'='INSECT'
(Other definitions for insect that I've seen before include "A fly, for instance" , "Eg, beetle or fly" , "Ladybird, for example" , "Bug" , "may be attracted to a website?" .)
