Standing watching a cricket game (8)
I believe the answer is:
umpiring
This clue could be a double definition.
'standing watching' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
'a cricket game' is the second definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for umpiring that I've seen before include "Refereeing" , "'Officiating, at a cricket match say (8)'" .)
