Crossword Genius

Gets out some crockery? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bowls

I believe this is a double definition.

'gets out' is the first definition.
(to bowl is to get someone out in cricket)

'some crockery?' is the second definition.
(bowls are a type of crockery)

(Other definitions for bowls that I've seen before include "Lawn game" , "Kitchen pots for storing" , "Game; vessels" , "They're rolled towards jack" , "Throws or rolls a ball" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
