Run over (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

extra

reair

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'run' is the first definition.
(cricket run)

'over' is the second definition.
(extra can mean left over)

(Other definitions for extra that I've seen before include "Taxer (anag.)" , "Another" , "Additional - bye" , "he plays his part" , "One playing small part" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times and The Telegraph.
