Really hating this, got only about 20% of the answers and can't parse some of those.
13d. Is to cease manufacturing warm coasts for mothers-to-be (3,6). Tea cosies. Why mothers-to-be?
15d. ...This year keen for some cricket (6-6). Twenty Twenty. Can't see what 'keen' is doing in the clue.
72d. Writer in The Guardian, or in Le Monde (7). Might be Angelou but no idea why, so might not be.

13, just a guess.
There is saying about pouring tea.
"Will you be mother?" Meaning will you pour the tea.

15d. Perhaps 'keen' (eyesight) relates to 20:20 vision, so a triple definition?

Thank you, but I think I'll abandon it, I'll have more fun doing some DIY that I've been putting off.
