Fielder desires spinner (4,4)
I believe the answer is:
long-stop
'fielder' is the definition.
'desires spinner' is the wordplay.
'desires' becomes 'long s' (longing is a kind of desiring).
'spinner' becomes 'top' (a spinning top).
'longs'+'top'='LONG-STOP'
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
