A game vegetable? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

squash

This clue is a double definition.

'a game' is the first definition.
(squash is a kind of game)

'vegetable?' is the second definition.
(I know that squash is a type of vegetable)

(Other definitions for squash that I've seen before include "A sport; a drink; a veg" , "Indoor racquet game" , "court action" , "Cordial drink" , "Ball game; gourd" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
