34 across - First door on the left for special deliveries? (6,6) I have ?i?k?t ?a?d?n
I feel sure it's "wicket maiden" and can see the cricket connection to "special deliveries" but can't figure out the "first door on the left" reference.

first = MAIDEN

door = WICKET defn 1 of sense 1 http://www.thefreedictionary.com/wicket
on the left means put that first since it is an across clue

Thank you, bibblebub. I had managed the 'wicket/door' connection but the other two parts escaped me completely - Hell would certainly have frozen over before I twigged!
