Where to land in style after cricket score (6)
I believe the answer is:
runway
'where to land' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how one could define the other.
'style after cricket score' is the wordplay.
'style' becomes 'way' (synonyms).
'after' says to put letters next to each other.
'cricket score' becomes 'run' (runs are scored in cricket).
'way' put after 'run' is 'RUNWAY'.
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for runway that I've seen before include "A plane lands on it" , "Where one takes off" , "A plane takes off from it" , "Level stretch for aircraft" , "takeoff point" .)
