Manage some cricket by bishop’s place (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oversee

'manage' is the definition.
(I know that manage is a type of administrate)

'some cricket by bishop's place' is the wordplay.
'some cricket' becomes 'over' (I've seen this in other clues).
'by' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'bishop's place' becomes 'see' (see can mean an area with a cathedral and bishop).
'over'+'see'='OVERSEE'

(Other definitions for oversee that I've seen before include "Watch people toil" , "survey" , "Direct" , "risk eyestrain?" , "Act as tutor" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
