Run out with disgusted expression over players getting plastered (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

roughcast

'plastered' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'run out with disgusted expression over players' is the wordplay.
'run out' becomes 'RO' (cricket abbreviation).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'disgusted expression' becomes 'ugh' (expression of disgust).
'over' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'players' becomes 'cast' (group of actors).
'ro'+'ugh'+'cast'='ROUGHCAST'

'getting' is the link.

(Other definitions for roughcast that I've seen before include "may use it to get supporters plastered" , "Lacking refinement" , "often seen plastered outside" , "not in the best of form yet" , "Wall covering" .)
