Foreign bowler in local match (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

derby

This clue is a double definition.

'foreign bowler' is the first definition.
(American term for a bowler hat)

'local match' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for derby that I've seen before include "confrontation between neighbours" , "... and after 8 [STATE = KENTUCKY] , meeting" , "English city" , "Epsom 20" , "Midlands city" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
