Is it heard at the cricket ground when England are losing? (5,6)
I believe the answer is:
lords prayer
'is it heard at the cricket' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'ground when england are losing?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'ground' could be 'lords' (I've seen this before) and 'lords' is located in the answer.
'when' could be 'e' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'e' is found in the answer.
'are' could be 'a' (short for 'are', historical unit of measurement) and 'a' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for lords prayer that I've seen before include "Our Father......" , "Motor dating from nineteen twenty five to nineteen forty two" , "part of the service" .)
