Chicken and duck roll sandwiches (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rooster

'chicken' is the definition.
(I know that rooster is a type of chicken)

'duck roll sandwiches' is the wordplay.
'duck' becomes 'o' (resembles zero - 'duck' in cricket).
'roll' becomes 'roster' (roll can mean a list or roster).
'sandwiches' is an insertion indicator (to sandwich is to block something in).
'o' going within 'roster' is 'ROOSTER'.

'and' is the link.

(Other definitions for rooster that I've seen before include "8 [RURAL] alarm call" , "Chanticleer" , "Farmyard fowl" , "Adult male chicken" , "Toreros (anag.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times.
