I found this one a wee bit challenging today, but some pleasing clues too.

As a kiwi I had to google to get 12a once I figured out the second word.

I do not understand what "poaching" has to do with 1d assuming I have the answer right.

My favourites today were 16a, 21a and 20d.
22a deserves a highly commendable.

Hi Matador, the answer to 1d. is also Cockney rhyming slang for a certain type of criminal, who could be a poacher.

Thanks Mattrom .Makes sense now.

I had difficulty with 22a, since it refers to a not so popular name. But once you look up this name, 22a makes sense. Other clues with proper names were easy, including 18d.

Morning all. Hope we are all coping. Found todays rather straightforward perhaps too many obvious anagrams unless I am just getting better at this which i doubt. And letter swaps 11a 19d can be a give away.

Is "captain" right in 21a? Not what he's most remembered for!

One day internationals only I think.

Could someone confirm that 17d is TINY TIT ?

If I google it, I don't find any species of said bird, only some semi-pornographic images.
