Guy taking bronze from place to field (5,3)
I believe the answer is:
third man
I believe this is a double definition.
'guy taking bronze' is the first definition.
(person in third place)
'place to field' is the second definition.
(fielding position in cricket)
'from' is the link.
(Other definitions for third man that I've seen before include "Mystery spy" , "is close to the rope?" , "Cricket fielding position (for a spy?)" , "Harry Lime" , "position in the field?" .)
