Game involving insect (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cricket

I believe this is a double definition.

'game' is the first definition.
(I know that cricket is a type of outdoor game)

'insect' is the second definition.
(I know that cricket is a type of orthopteran)

'involving' is the link.

(Other definitions for cricket that I've seen before include "English game or chirping insect" , "short leg seen on this field?" , "Ball game" , "Insect with long leg" , "a jumper" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
