Beaten cricket coach ultimately cheated (8)
I believe the answer is:
throbbed
'beaten' is the definition.
(throbbing is a kind of beating)
'cricket coach ultimately cheated' is the wordplay.
'ultimately' indicates one should take the final letters.
'cheated' becomes 'robbed' (robbing is a kind of cheating).
The final letters of 'cricket coach' are 'th'.
'th'+'robbed'='THROBBED'
(Other definitions for throbbed that I've seen before include "Pulsed with noise, pain" , "Pulsated" .)
