goa

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'beach cricket here?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'regularly good at' is the wordplay.
'regularly' indicates alternate letters (regularly take one letter, leave next etc.).
'good'+'at'='goodat'
The alternating letters of 'goodat' are 'GOA'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for goa that I've seen before include "State of SW India" , "Former Portuguese territory in India" , "Indian island state" , "Indian holiday destination" , "part of subcontinent" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
