'in cricket' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'we start to change the side' is the wordplay.
'start to' suggests taking the first letters.
'change' is an anagram indicator.
The initial letter of 'we' is 'w'.
'side' with letters rearranged gives 'ides'.
'w'+'ides'='WIDES'
