Get cross in game (8,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

contract bridge

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'game' is the definition.
(contract bridge is a kind of game)

'get cross in' is the wordplay.
'get' becomes 'contract' ('contract' can be a synonym of 'get').
'cross in' becomes 'bridge' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'contract'+'bridge'='CONTRACT BRIDGE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for contract bridge that I've seen before include "that requires two pairs of hands" , "Wherein four deck hands" , "Instruction for nose job, perhaps" , "Card game" , "Quartet play this" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
