24 - N=new. fashion = way (turned up = yaw) yawn (not a very good explanation, others may do better!)
24d Yawn - n(ew) + way (fashion) (both up)
28a Warlords - 'raw' (unprepared, retreats [back]) + Lords (cricket ground)
yawn - new = n way = fashion, all backwards
yawn = way backwards + n
warlords = raw backwards +lords - cricket goround
28 - ground - Lords cricket ground, unprepared = raw (retreated/reversed) - warlords
