Good day, I was growing to expect a smooth run through Doc,
but got stumped with three of his clues. Discovered the theme
quite early in the game, though the last three are still eluding me.
Help with the following would be appreciated, thanks in advance!

34a Almost finally having Midwest displayed in these? (7) : ??L?S?S
40a Diners chopped up a tree that is a little stunted (8) : ?UT?A?A?
31d Half of lesson leading Indian fairy (4) : P???

Brilliant, thanks!
Matakari, I think you'll be pleased to see another Doc puzzle today. I was less than enthisiastic!
17A: Skilfully handled - after a stroke? (7)
F I E L _ E _
FIELDED? But not sure why...

25A: Jack starts to play up rudely (3)
P _ R
PUR, I'm guessing - the first letters of Play Up Rudely. It reads as though Jack is the definition word, but I can't find a definition of pur to tie in with it, e.g. sailor, knave, etc.
Wrd, Fielded is a double definition, handled and also a cricket term, after a stroke, ie after the ball has been hit it is 'fielded', caught by a fielder.
Pur, jack, in a particular card game. It's in Chambers.
Thank you Neveracrossword - cricket isn't my speciality (so I avoid certain crosswords!)
Wrd456. Glad I could help. I know very little about cricket, but that's the second cricket term I've come upwith for AB tonight!
